REPORT.
Your Committee, in accordance with the vote of the town, gave
a hearing to the parties interested, at the Selectmen's room, on two
evenings, and also at the places named in the articles, visiting and
examining these 20 localities during one-half day. After this inves-
tigation it appears to us that there are many other places equally
needing the expenditure of money, and in view of this fact, and of
the large number of articles annually placed in the warrant calling for
special appropriations for objects properly in charge of the Highway
Department, we are unanimous in the opinion that no special appro-
priations should be made except in cases where special reasons exist,
requiring them.
We find special reasons in connection with only two of the
articles referred to us, namely, Articles 34 and 37.
We recommend the town to appropriate $500 to be expended
on Greenwood and Spring streets, Boyntonville, as asked in Article
34, and for the reasons given by the Selectmen in their annual report
of this year.
We also recommend the town to appropriate $500 to be expen-
ded on Prospect street, as requested in article 37 and as ordered by
the County Commissioners some four years ago, said decree having
been carried out on the western but not on the eastern portion of the
street.
We make further recommendations as to the following articles :
Article 33. That it be indefinitely postponed, as we do not con-
sider it the duty of the town to drain this land.
Article 35. That the town widen Water street, as requested in
this article, if the land for the purpose be given.
Article 36. That the bridge named in this article be repaired by
the proper authorities, upon whom its maintenance devolves.
Article 39. That it be indefinitely postponed being covered by
Article 34.
As regards the other articles referred to us, namely Articles 29,
30, 31, 32, 38, 41, 42, 43, 44, 62, 63, 64 and 65, we recommend the
town to refer them to the Supt. of Streets, the costs to be taken from
the regular Highway Appropriation, which we recommend be in-
creased in the sum of $1000 to defray expenses incurred in carrying
out the repairs and improvements contemplated by these articles.
This reference to the Supt. of Streets coincides with the request of
several parties interested and appearing before your Committee.
Respectfully submitted,
S. O. Richardson, Geo. E. Ricker, J. Wallace Grace, H. H. Savage,
Wm. F. Young, Wm. K. Perkins, Michael Low, A. H. Thayer.

ALVIN L. VANNAH,
JAMES A. McFADDEN,
Night Watchmen,
Until the present year the Town of Wakefield has never rounded
its police administration with the efficiency pertaining to a complete
whole. No police quarters have ever been established where citizens
could readily find an officer, or lodge complaints, or seek such assist-
ance as circumstances required. Officers from other cities and
towns have been under the necessity heretofore of searching for
local police assistance (until some stray officer could be found) when
immediate aid was of the utmost importance. Lost children, run-
aways, accidents and the many causes for action on the part of the
police have heretofore devolved upon a divided and consequently
48
inefficient police service. As at present provided for, the Police
Department as a working organization, though small, is established
upon a basis which calls for continued support and recognition.
Officers may be changed, but the organization if continued, as all
law-abiding citizens should demand and provide for, must, in the
nature of things, meet just the want which has for a long time been
felt, of guaranteeing the exact, prompt and efficient assistance which
the divided and inefficient service heretofore mentioned has failed,
and must fail, to guarantee or provide for. During the eleven months
last past an officer has been on duty at all times through the day and
evening, and when not engaged in actual police duty away from the
office, has been unremittingly engaged in the innumerable duties
heretofore distributed among various police officers or left undone.
The present Hoard of Selectmen have placed the Police Department
in line with the towns in our immediate vicinity, and upon a basis
which the best sentiment of the community in warm terms sustains,
and which I have no doubt is tin.' wisest move in the right direction,
whoever may be called to administer the office.
The following recommendations are offered as necessary and im-
portant.
PlRST. Three new cells should be built for the accommodation of
persons who apply for lodgings, so that the present accommodations
may be used solely for the legitimate purpose for which they were
constructed.
SECOND. An entrance to the lockup should be constructed from
the outside ; a reasonable investigation of this proposition will disclose
the necessity for its recommendation.
I desire in 'conclusion to add my personal and official acknowledge-
ment to the night officers for the faithful and efficient manner in
which their duties have been performed, and for various additional
and voluntary offices tendered by them, and accepted for the public
good.
CHARLES E. XILES, Chief of Police.

ANNUAL REPORT OF SUPT. OF FIRE ALARM.
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen.
GENTLEMEN: — The Wakefield Fire Alarm consists of ten miles of
line, one thirty-cell gravity battery, eight fire alarm boxes located as
follows :
Box 12, on pole at Greenwood.
" 15, " Junction.
" 23, " near Hamilton School.
" 35, " Post Office.
•' 37, u Corner Salem and Main Streets.
" 41, Corner of Cordis and School Sts., N. Ward.
54, Junction of Lowell and Salem Sts., E. Ward.
'31, on Rattan Company's Office.
One tower striker on High School, one whistling machine at Rattan
Factory, one steam gong at Rattan Factory, one house tapper at
Hathaway 's Stable, one galvanometer at Hathaway's Stable, one
break circuit clock at Centre Depot, one break circuit key in High
School building for school service, two-cell La Clance battery, one
test bell for testing boxes.
SUPPLIES AND TOOLS.
Thirty zincs, small lot blue vitriol, five pounds sal. ammoniac,
twenty 6x8 glass battery jars, twelve glass insulators, fifty feet No. 9
telegraph wire, two switch pins, small lot braided wire, two dozen
key box glasses, one pair steel spurs, one pair stub steel plyers, one
vice and strap.
On May nth, as per vote of the town at the annual meeting, an
18 inch gong was placed upon the Engine House at East Ward, at
an expense of $82.55.
On May 18th, the boxes were painted, and a break circuit key was
placed in the clock at the Centre Depot, so when the clock should
get out of repair the town could still have the standard time.
Your Superintendent has arranged in case of a large fire, the third
alarm calls aid from Reading.
Standard time will be given by one blow at 9 a. m.
5 — 5 will be struck at 7.45 a. m. for no school in forenoon, same
at n.55 for no school in afternoon.
54
May 1 2th, Mr. James Graham was hired as assistant on fire alarm
for one year to look after the alarm during the day as business takes
the Superintendent out of town.
May 30th, set pole and placed gong on front of Greenwood School
House. This gong was borrowed from G. M. Stevens and is not the
property of the town.
The alarm was used seven times during the month of May, four
times for brush fires and three times for school service. The alarm
was not used during the month of June. The alarm was used three
times during the month of July, and a house tapper was placed in
the Chief Engineer's house on Pleasant Street. The alarm was not
used during the months of August and September. The alarm was
used once for fire during the month of October.
November 1st, the Wakefield Rattan Company requested that a
fire alarm box be placed at or near the Factory, and as they make
no charge for steam, to blow the whistle, box 31 was placed on their
office for their use in case of fire. Cost of running line, box and labor.
The alarm was not used during the month of November. The
alarm was used once during the month of December for fire.
There have been during the year, several wild cat blows caused by
outside parties breaking the line, moving buildings and derricks and
a jir.
J, would recommend that the line be extended and boxes placed
as to protect the new houses on Converse Street and Cowdrey's
Hill. This can be done by running a single wire and forming a large
loop, with as many boxes as the town may choose to have. By run-
ning the line in this way all of the west portion will be amply pro-
tected.
I would also recommend that the alarm be extended, and a box
placed at or near the corner of Richardson and Melvin Streets.
This can be done by looping the same as the West Ward.
There is need of a striker or large gong in the West Ward, for in
windy weather it is impossible to hear the present alarm.
'The battery has been cleaned and renewed as occasion required
during the year. The boxes have been tested and the system kept
in perfect working order.
In closing, I would take this opportunity to thank the Engineers
and Town Officers in general for courtesy and kindness during the
year.
Respectfully submitted,
A. S. COBB,
Superinte?ident Fire Alarm TelegrapJi.

Three hundred persons have been employed at an average expense
of 51 cents and a fraction, or a fraction over $4.14 per fire. Three
of these fires were well under way before the people were properly
alarmed, which made the expense correspondingly heavy, the three
fires costing $60.75.
The Fire Department have been needlessly called to four wood
fires, these calls being given without the knowledge of the Firewards.

FIRE ALARM TELEGRAPH.
We have added during the past year one alarm box, one iS-
inch gong, one 6-inch gong. There are pearly ten miles of wire,
one Electric Clock, five fire-alarm gongs, eight lire alarm boxes,
located as follows :
Box 12, — Greenwood.
15, — Junction.
23, — West District.
31, — Office Rattan Factory.
35, — Post Office.
37, — Cor. Main and Salem streets.
41,— North Ward.
11 54, — Montrose.
" $^ — No School.
Electric Clock at Centre Depot in care of Mr. L. B. French,
Station Agent, who has the thanks of the Engineers and citizens
of the town for testing the wire daily by one blow, giving stan-
dard time at 9 a. m.
One 10-inch double bell steam gong on No. 2 building at the
Wakefield Rattan Co. ; one bell striker on High School building,
Main street ; one 18-inch gong on Chemical Engine house, Mont-
rose ; one 6-inch gong on Chief Engineer's house, Pleasant
street; one 6-inch gong in Hathaway's stable; one 18-inch gong
on Greenwood school-house ; it is loaned to the town on trial by
Mr. G. M. Stevens.
On account of the severe storms and high winds, it has re-
quired close attention to keep it in working order. The Stevens'
Fire Alarm system works satisfactory. The Wakefield Rattan
Co. have furnished steam for the 10-inch gong since 1887. With-
out making any charge they concluded to have a fire alarm box to
connect with the fire-alarm telegraph. Your Engineers placed
Box 31 for their use.

RECOMMENDATIONS.
Your Engineers think it advisable for the town to dispose of
the four-wheeled hose carriage, which has been in service for
more than a score of years, and to purchase one horse wagon that
will carry [,ooo feet hose and life saving apparatus that the law
requires us to carry ; also that the fire alarm telegraph be
extended, placing one hie alarm box at or near the Gas House,
and extend to the Town farm with a fire alarm box, and one at
the corner of Mclvin and Bennett streets. The gong on the
Greenwood School-house, loaned by Mr. Stevens on trial, we
would recommend to be purchased for the sum of $60. Also
500 feet of cotton hose
The double-nozzle tire hydrants, leased by the town, are war-
ranted by the Wakefield Water Co. to be in good condition.
Many of them were- inspected bv Your Chief Engineer and found
satisfactory .
for bire Department expenses see Auditors' page. For the
ensuing year would recommend the sum of $2,500 be raised and
appropriated for the use of the department.
In conclusion we desire to express our thanks to the Selectmen,
the members of the fire departments, and citizens of the town
who have so cheerfully assisted us in all our efforts to make the
department successful.
Respectfully submitted,
OWEN CORCORAN, Chief,

REPORT OF BOARD OF HEALTH.
Our Board held its first meeting soon after election, and organized
by electing Mr. Wiley chairman, Dr. O'Leary secretary, and Mr.
Cate health officer.
It was determined at the beginning of the year that the rules of
the Board should be strictly enforced and a vigorous policy adopted
for* the year's work.
As near as possible this policy has been carried out, but owing to
the absence of different members, (there being at one time, in mid-
summer, only one member in town), the work has been somewhat
broken up. However, the health of the town has been carefully
looked after, many nuisances investigated and abated, and severa
new and important rules added to the Regulations. A rule that has
been enforced this year is that requiring the reporting of contagious
diseases and placarding of houses containing the same. The swine
question has been handled with good results.
NUISANC1 5.
Many minor nuisances have been reported and abated this year,
and several more important ones have been attended to.
The ditch of stagnant water on Railroad street, situated on the
adjoining estates of Messrs. Rayner, Eaton and Wiley, during the
summer became offensive to sight and smell, and was viewed by the
Board. The question of whose business it was to abate it was a
complicated one, and the Health Officer was at a loss to know upon
whom to serve notice to abate. The stagnant water was caused by
the blocking up of a drain pipe put in by the town some years ago,
and yet the nuisance was on the land of the owners thereof. The
matter was finally settled by the town taking up and repairing the
drain, so that the nuisance was speedily abated.
A nuisance on Richardson street that had been bequeathed this
year's Board by the retiring Board, was promptly and effectually set-
tled. An effort has been made to improve the Lake street district
by opening the culverts and draining the land by allowing the water
63
to flow off. The results have not been entirely satisfactory for several
reasons, among them being the emptying of the Water Go's overflow
pipe on this Land, and the extreme height at which the water in
Crystal Lake has been held. We have no doubt this matter will soon
be properly attended to, as the town is now taking an active interest
in draining the district.
I HE swim; QUESTION.
It has been thought advisable by the Board of Health in past
years to prohibit the keeping of swine within the centre of the town,
but no action was taken and no rule to that effect made. One of
the first things considered by us this year was this very important
matter and we decided t<> get the opinion of the citizens of the town
who were interested, by giving a public hearing on the question.
Accordingly a hearing was held April 24, and the opinion of those
present was asked. The attendance was small, only those directly
interested being present, but the subject was thoroughly discussed and
all agreed that it was a good thing and should be carried out with
tain restrictions. Alter the hearing the Board went into executive
don and voted to adopt Reg. 9, and to have it go into effect July
1 . [889.
We desired to be as lenient as possible in the matter, consistent
with the public health, and to give those who had swine within the
limits an opportunity to dispose of them to advantage, so for this
reason did not have the new rule take effect before July 1.
As this rule was a new and strict one the Board expected some
trouble in enforcing it. Swine at the best cause more or less bad
odor, but the swine within the limits kept the Board of Health in
mal-odor during all the summer months. While the greater part of
those upon whom we served notice t>> remove their swine, readily and
cheerfully complied, we are sorry to say that in some cases we met
decided opposition, and one party went so far as to prepare to con-
test the case in law, although he finally, after causing us much trouble,
complied with the regulation.
We would recommend to future Health Officers the strict enforce-
ment of Reg. 9, as our town is rapidly growing and the population is
becoming more dense, especially at the centre, so that the future
health of the inhabitants demands that this matter be carefully looked
after. " Public health is public wealth," and we cannot be too active
in matters relating to our sanitary welfare.
64
DISEASES AND DEATHS.
Our town still maintains its high average of health, and our citizens
are to be congratulated on the freedom of the town from an epidemic
of any contagious disease during the past year. To be sure " La
Grippe " visited us as it did the rest of the world, but even with this
disease we escaped more fortunately than most of the neighboring
towns and cities. The number of deaths resulting from Influenza
was very small, if any could be directly attributed to it, while about
us its victims were counted by the score.
The number of contagious diseases reported was small, and in this
we have been fortunate as some of our nearer neighbors have been
afflicted with severe runs of Diphtheria and Scarlet Fever.
For the year there were reported as follows :
Measles, 10 cases with no deaths.
Diphtheria. 8 " " 4
Searlet Fever, 5 " " no "
Typhoid Fever, 3 u 2 "
An examination of the mortality list shows that as usual Consump-
tion leads, there being 16 deaths from this cause, while Heart Disease
is a close second with 14 deaths. The year has been marked by
many sudden deaths, chiefly from Heart Disease and Apoplexy, a
number of familiar faces having been removed by these causes.
The number of deaths which occurred from different causes during
the year 1889 is as follow
Consumption,
Heart Disease,
Apoplexy.

SUGGESTION.
The official and active agent of a Hoard of Health is the Health
( Officer. To him is assigned all the real work of that body and he is
the one who has to investigate complaints, reason with his fellow-
citizens and often command them to confoim with the rules and
abate nuisances caused by them or on their property. This is not a
pleasant duty at any time, for the part}- responsible for the nuisance
rarely willing to admit that it is deleterious to public health, and
even if he d< slow to abate it, stopping long to consider the
expense oi (leaning up, and waiting to see if his neighbors and the
Hoard of Health will not forget all about it.
During the hot summer months when complaints are coming in
from all side^ of the town the position of the Health Officer is not
an eas) one, and he finds his hands full of public, business to the
injury of his own private affairs. Each case takes time to properly
investigate and must be followed up to see that the parties comply with
the law.
The experience of the present and past Hoards leads us to offer a
suggestion on this matter, which, if carried out, will no doubt improve
the sanitary condition of the town by facilitating the work of the
Health Officer.
We would suggest that the position be held by some town official
who gives his entire time to public duties, as for instance, the Chief
of Police or the Sup't of Streets, (though not necessarily these.)
Either of these officials being about the town continually would be
able to not only readily investigate nuisances reported but also dis-
cover those not reported but which, nevertheless, should be abated.
Their entire time being given to public duties we think they would
be able to produce more satisfactory results than are now attainable.

OVERSEERS' REPORT.
The duties and responsibilities of Overseers of the Poor are some-
times simple, often complicated, but always imperative. One appli-
cant may be reasonable in requests for aid, while another will urge
his demands regardless of reason or justice.
In some cases, after much perplexity, little satisfaction is gained in
either giving or receiving ; our aim in all cases is to give reasonable
and needful aid without encouraging a spirit of pauperism.
The necessities of the unfortunate and needy or the criticisms of
generous minded persons in their behalf, cannot be fully met under
the present statutes governing the action of the Overseers of the
Poor. The foregoing is in brief the experience year after year, but
more especially the last year when largely increased calls have required
greater caution and more economy on the part of this Hoard. The
examinations required in many cases to determine place of settlement
have taken much time but have been faithfully conducted.
We have declined to pay for clothing for patients in Insane Hospitals
the past year, the opinion of the Attorney General being that such
expenses are included in the amount of $3.25 paid per week for
support. The Danvers Hospital still sends bills for clothing and
breakage.
We will not repeat the facts in regard to the farm given in our
extended report of last year. There are certain matters, however,
that deserve mention as bearing on the receipts from the farm. The
continued wet weather during 1S89, reduced the potato crop from
250 bushels to 80. It has also prevented the getting out of meadow
muck which has necessitated the purchase of a certain amount of
manure. The price of pork and pigs has been so low the past year
as to reduce the receipts from that source about one third.
In spite of the wet weather the hay crop was got in, in good
order. The usual quantity of wood has been cut the past winter,
some 40 cords. The general policy of improving the condition of
the farm has been continued during the past year. Another half
acre of meadow land along Saugus River has been reclaimed. About
30 rods of wire fencing has been put in.
67
Our Almshouse, so far as cleanliness, and care on the part of the
superintendent is concerned, is pron mnced by the State Inspector as
second to none in the State. We have engaged Mr. Donald as
keeper tor the coining year.
For a detailed report of the expenses at the farm and for outside
relief we refer to the figures we have furnished the Auditors.
During the past year we have aided individuals and families repre-
senting 1 80 persons, outside the Almshouse.
In conclusion we wish to say that the painting and shingling of the
house the coming year is an absolute necessity.

REPORT OT FISH COMMITTEE.
Our fourteenth annual report will be brief, as there are few facts
ord in connection with the past year's fishing in Lake
Ouannapowitt.
Through the whole season the water in the lake was at an unusual
height, and to this we attribute the fact, that fewer fish than usual
were taken. Many large pickerel were caught, and Mr. J. C. Harts-
horne reports one weighing 6 lbs., which is the largest ever taken
from the lake.
While the high water interfered somewhat with the season's sport,
it was the means of bringing the alewives from the sea, in much
greater numbers than ever before. The whole number of permits
sold was 350, but so few returns have been received that their tabu-
lation would be of little value.
We estimate the season's catch at 3,000 lbs., which is, undoubtedly
considerably below actual results.

This fund is for the purpose of providing such lectures as will tend
to improve and elevate the public mind and to impose a reasonable
fee for admission to such lectures and pay over the net proceeds of
the same to such charitable organization in said Wakefield, as the
municipal officers of said town may designate, to be distributed
among the worthy poor of said town.
The fourth course, season of 1889-90, has been in charge of Jacob
C. Hartshorne, Esq., he having been appointed Curator by the Board
of Selectmen, and has been more largely attended than any course
thus far. The course tickets for ejght lectures were placed at 50
cents each and single admission 10 cents. Two extra lectures have
been given to which those having course tickets were admitted, mak-
ing ten lectures for fifty cents. There were 293 Course tickets sold
and the evening admissions have varied from 52 smallest to 195
largest, up to the present time (Feb. 1.)
On account of the financial year of the town closing one month
earlier than heretofore, the course was not completed in season to
render the financial statement in this report. It will be given in the
local press at the close of the Course, and will also appear in the
next annual Town Report.
The proceeds of the first three courses amounting to $75.33 still
remains in the Treasury, awaiting the action of the Selectmen for its
disposal, in accordance with the terms of the bequest.

The Treasurer would recommend that the town appropriate the
sum of S3000 for interest upon the Town Debt. In my last report
I stated that the principal of the debt was so arranged and provided
for by previous votes of the town, that it would be annually met by
taxation without any further special appropriation therefor, but the
action of the town, at the meeting held July 22 last, in rescinding
certain votes relative to the debt, will necessitate some action by the
town to provide for the payment of a portion of the debt maturing
during the coming \ear. The portion requiring such provision is as
follow
The Hamilton School House Loan,
Lark Loan, .
Highway Loan (land near Depot)
$1500 00

These can be provided for in two ways ; either by a vote to raise
and appropriate this amount at the annual meeting, or by a vote to
refund the same. But in case of refunding in order to comply with
the law, as I understand it, the loans for the Hamilton School House
and the Park, should be made payable before the years 1893 and 1894
respectively, and as we have similar portions of the debt maturing
each year previous to those years, it is difficult to see the relief to be
gained by transferring the payment from one year to another as was
argued at the July meeting. The relief can be but temporary, and
in point of fact we shall have a larger amount of the debt maturing
in the years 1892 and 1893 *nan m tne present year.
For these reasons I favor and would recommend to the town,
that under the article to provide for the payment of the town debt,
they raise and appropriate the sum of $3837 50 the present year.
If the town decide otherwise, the other alternative is to refund under
a later article which I have requested to be placed in the Warrant,
and under which I shall be prepared to offer a motion.
I base my views as herein stated upon Chapter 29 of the Public
Statutes, particularly sections 8 and 14. I have also submitted the
situation to the Tax Commissioner who sustains me in the position I
have taken.
My report as Treasurer of the lleebe Town Library will be found
in connection with the Trustees' Report.
Respectfully submitted.

SELECTMEN'S REPORT.
To the Citizens of Wake fir Id.
In presenting the report of the work of the Selectmen for the
ir we wish to congratulate you upon the prosperous condition of
our town and the flattering outlook for its future growth and pros-
perity. We sec on every side new buildings being erected not for
speculative purposes alone but for actual settlement in our town, of
people who are coming here from surrounding towns and cities to
dwell and share with us the many natural advantages which our town
DO B. They receiving the encouragement also from our public
spirited and valued citizens who are ever ready to welcome the stran-
i and friend.
\ i small amount of money is being brought to our town and in-
vested in real estate and in building numerous and commodious
dwellings, and in the construction of new streets. A large outlay of
money is being expended in substantial public buildings. In looking
about it is easy to discover substantial evidences of contemplated
new and fine buildings such as the Grand Army Memorial Hall, the
new brick and stone depot and others, altogether largely increasing
our taxable property.
FINANCE.
For the detailed account of the several departments of the town
we respectfully refer to the reports of the various departments. For
a summary of appropriations and expenditures for the year we refer
to the Auditors' final balance sheet. For the statement of the town's
liabilities and available assets we refer to the Treasurer's report.
INSURANCE.
A policy on the town house fixtures amounting to two thousand
dollars expired in June last, and it being the only insurance on the
fixtures we thought it best to have the same renewed. One policy
on the town house for five thousand dollars expired in September
and was not renewed, the town having voted to reduce the insurance
80
POIiCE.
Mr. Charles E. Niles was re-appointed Chief of Police with a salary
of six hundred dollars per year, he to devote his entire time to the
duties pertaining to that office. ^Ye are well satisfied that the change
in that direction has proved advantageous to the town. 'A much
needed and suitable office was fitted up fur the accommodation of
the department. Too much praise cannot be given him for his unre-
mitting and very sut cessful prosecution and suppression of illegal
liquor traffic and the consequent lessening of disorder and crime
which is agreeably perceptible in our town. Messrs. Yannah and
McFadden have been continued as night watch the past year who
have rendered the same vigilant (are as in former years.
CLAIMS.
The suit of Mr. John Millerick against the town for damages said
to have been received by him on account of defective condition of
sidewalk on Crescent Street, came to atrial in court, and a verdict
fen to the town. The suit brought against the town by Miss 1 1 attic
1 ). M. Clark for injuries said to have been received from an alleged
defect in the sidewalk on Elm street, was decided by jury in court,
inst the town, and damages to the amount of (me thousand dollars
was awarded her, but in consultation with the counsel for the town the
ml decided it advisable to file exceptions to the ruling of the
at. which exceptions are now pendii
A suit is entered against the town by Mrs. Rebecca C. Arrington
for the sum of five thousand dollars for injuries said to have been
received on Mechanic street, caused by reason of an alleged defect
in sidewalk. The Board has engaged counsel to appear in court and
defend the town. It is expected the case will be reached at an early
date.
The Board received summons to appear in court and defend the
town against Frank McGlory for damages claimed to have been re-
ceived on account of defective condition of Railroad street at the
Peoples' Ice Company's crossing. Notice has been served on the
Peoples' Ice Company that the town holds them responsible for all
damages and cost attending this suit. A communication has been
received by the Board from Mrs. James I. Brown for a claim against
the town for damages to her estate on Greenwood street caused by
grading the same.
81
C
Your Board finds the expense, as inquired for at last annual town
meeting, for indexing the town records since its incorporation in 1812
— seventy-eight years, will cost about one hundred and fifty dollars.
The perambulation of the town lines of Wakefield, Saugus and
Melrose have been attended to for the year 1S89, as required by law.
The repairs on the town house have been thoroughly and well done.
The slating, which was done by Mr. Gray of Stoneham, will remain
good for a number of years. The frescoed ceiling in the main hall
i touched up and >tains removed ; the upper hallways and stairways
and walls tinted as also the Library, Reading Room and Court Room ;
the woodwork varnished and a thorough cleaning up of the whole
building ; in the ( 'ourt Room was put a large ventilating transom over
the door.
In the tall state election your Board had a new experience in meet-
ing and providing for the new Australian system of election as
enacted in Legislature in 1 888, and although not perfect in all its
details we realized its success and general satisfaction, and recom-
mend its adoption at future town meeting-.
The boundary lines between the town and the first parish have
been established according to the transfer of deeds by the last Board.
The lease of town land on Church street to Mrs. Rebecca C. Arling-
ton has been terminated. The vote of the town has been carried
out as recommended by the Committee who reported a systematic
plan of numbering houses in town. Printed copies of said plan may
be found with the Town Clerk. Mr. Jacob C. Hartshorne was ap-
pointed Superintendent of the Sweetser Lecture Course and he has
performed the duties well and with marked success.
Your Hoard received a petition from the Wakefield and Stoneham
street railway company for a location of tracks through Albion street
which was granted them. Mr. Justin Howard has been appointed
Soldiers' Undertaker as (ailed for in Chapter 395 Acts and Resolves
for the year 1889, he being acceptable to the Grand Army post of
this town and a member of same.
HIGHWAYS AND CRIDGKS.
At the beginning of the municipal year we appointed one of the
Board — Mr. George E. Ricker, temporarily Superintendent of Streets
hoping to find some man of experience in road building, but failing
to agree upon any one, we made the appointment of Mr. Ricker
permanent. For detailed account of expenditures in that department
we refer to the report of the Superintendent of Streets.
82
ELECTRIC LIGHTS.
Early in the summer, application was made to the Board by the
People's Electric Light and Power Company for permission to erect
poles and string wires on same for the purpose of conveying electric
current for electric lighting and power. A little later the Wakefield
Electric Light and Power Company applied for like franchise, this
Company having previously applied to the former Board of Selectmen
who took no apparent action in the matter. A public hearing was
given both companies. Before a discussion was reached, however,
in favor of either company, the Citizens' Gas Light Company on
receiving permission of the State Gas Commissioners to enter into
the electric light business, then petitioned your Board for a similar
franchise in the town, and after granting a public hearing in their
behalf we took under consideration the merits of the three compa-
nies. Application by three out of town companies had also been
received for the same privilege, but no action was taken in their
behalf, feeling that home companies should have the preference. A
definite conclusion was difficult of attainment by the Board owing in
part to a very pronounced feeling in the community against electric
lighting in our town. A strong sentiment among some of our best
citizens against taking final action in the matter at present, has been
urged upon individual members of the Board. We feel that there
has been nothing lost to the town by making haste slowly. Improve-
ments certainly have been made in the meantime and prices for same
materially lessened.
All of which is respectfully submitted,
HENRY H. SAVAGE,
GEO. E. RICKER,

REPORT OF STJPT. OF STREETS.
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen :
The Superintendent of Streets herewith submits the following
report :
At the annual meeting the sum of $6,000 was appropriated for
general work, with two special appropriations, $500 for Prospect
street and $500 for Greenwood street. Ai additional appropriation
was voted at the fall meeting of $1,000 for general work, $800 for
Summit avenue, $300 for Myrtle avenue, and $300 for draining the
sa-called Foundry district, making a total of $9,400 which is an in-
crease of $1,000 on general, and $1,800 on special work, over last
ir.
Work on the streets was commenced April 10, and ended Dec. 24,
covering a period of 220 working days, out of which the department
worked about 180 days.
The Superintendent received $3 per day for his services, and $2 for
his horse. Laborers, with the exception of C. H. Hart who received
$2.25, were paid $2 per day until Nov. 1, when they received $1.75
per day. A man and horse received $4 per day, until July 19, after
which they received $3.50 per day.
The amount paid each person for material, etc., will be found in
the financial report.
As a large part of the work on a number of the streets was done
somewhat connectedly, it is rather difficult to give the exact amount
expended on each street.
We give below the amount as near as could be estimated on gene
ral work per pay roll :

Smaller sums were expended in repairing streets in various parts of
the town. All of the streets with one or two exceptions were scraped
with the road machine. Culverts were cleaned out and gutters and
sidewalks repaired.
Cordis street was found to be in a very bad condition and required
considerable work, also some parts of Main, Vernon, Farm and Low-
ell streets.
The street scrapings were used to widen Water street, and build a
sidewalk on Lowell street, besides repairing numerous other sidewalks
in different parts of the town.
Owing to the heavy rains of the past season causing so many wash-
outs, much extra labor was required to repair the same, especially on
Main, Albion, Richardson and Melvin streets.
86
Melvin street had to be graded all the way down on the north side
and about half way down on the south. 'Richardson street and
Albion street at the junction with Broadway also had to be graded in
order to make them safe.
Crescent Court, a new street having no special appropriation, had
to be built from the general fund. The formation of the street being
of clay necessitated its removal. A road bed of stone was then laid
and the street graded. Crescent street to Water and Water to the
railroad crossing were also graded at the same time.
The road bed of Lawrence street was found to be in the same
condition as Crescent Court, and required the removal of about 2,000
loads of clay, which was used to widen Main street at Lakeside.
The street was then macadamized, and is now one of the best in
town. This street was expensive owing to the fact that the material
had to be brought from the stone crusher pit. which is quite a dis-
tance.
Smith and Lincoln streets, around the Town Hall were graded
which was a much needed improvement. Hirch Hill avenue and
part of Summer street were rebuilt, Birch Hill avenue being cut
down, and a new road bed of stone laid on Summer street and the
whole graded.
By order of the Board ol Health a drain was laid on Railroad
street at the junction of Church street, and a sand catcher put in.
Albion street has been graded from the Catholic Church up to
Cedar street, with gravel delivered by Mr. George W. Killoran at a
< ost of 23 cents per load.
Broadway was graded from the pumping station to the railroad
crossing with gravel delivered by X. H. Dow at 25 cents per load the
work on the last two named streets being especially needed.
The gravel taken from the G. A. R. cellar was used in grading
West Water street, Foundry street and repairing Main street at Lake-
side. Sidewalks were also built on West Water street and Main
street at Lakeside with gravel from the same cellar.
A new bridge has been built at Greenwood over the B. & M. rail-
road by Clark & Lee, contractors, for the sum of $145.
Bushes and grass have been cut and railings replaced on streets
where needed.
Greenwood street, Prospect street, Summit avenue, Myrtle avenue
and the Foundry district all had special appropriations and for item-
ized account see financial report.
87
Greenwood street, as per contract, .... $450 00
Myrtle avenue, as per pay roll, ..... 275 75
Summit avenue, as per pay roll,. ..... 740 43
Prospect street, per pay roll, ...... 489 13
lindry district, culverts as per pay roll, . . . 240 39
Greenwood strut was rebuilt by contract by Mr. Michael O'Con-
nelL All other spe< ial work has been clone by the Superintendent.
The work of raising and 1 leaning the culverts on Broadway, Railroad,
Main and Water streets has been done and the B. & M. R. R. Co.
have widened and repaired the culvert on Water street under their
trark It is now our opinion that if the water course is properly
cleared the long-standing trouble will be remedied.
CONCRETE.
At the annual meeting the sum of $500 was voted for concrete
work. The contract was awarded to W, B, Ellis of Melrose for 37c.
per yd. for sidewalks and gutters and 50c. per yd. for crossings. The
expenditure ha*> exceeded the appropriation (see financial report.)
\s a new sidewalk was needed on Crescent street the old one being
too low. and new crossings were laid at the Hamilton school building,
•lid and Greenwood streets and some sidewalks repaired, all this
was a work of necessity of which the town had to bear the entire
expense.
It was our intention to work the stone crusher but at the first of
the season we did not succeed in obtaining a man who understood
working the steam drill, and later on as we found stone enough at the
tone crusher pit ' already broken, to build the road-bed on Law-
rence street and Crescent court, and also had the gravel from the
pot, G. A. R. and Catholic Church cellars to use, and being under
extra exoense owing to the heavy rains of the season we found our
appropriation overdrawn. So the stone crusher was allowed to sleep,
but should be awakened, for in all probability the town will not be as
fortunate in obtaining such a supply of good gravel as we have had
this year. And we hope that the town will appropriate a sufficient
sum at the annual meeting to enable the crusher to be worked and
the crushed stone to be placed upon our streets in localities where
most needed, particulary on Main street.
Railroad street from Church street to the gas house is in a deplora-
ble condition and needs attention at once, and that section of Lowell
street near the Lake is in much the same state ; also Vernon street
8
should receive some attention ; and New Salem street and Main street
from the bridge to S. \Y. Flint's in Greenwood should be graded anew.
Concrete or paved gutters are needed on Prospect street, and with
our limited experience we would recommend a paved gutter on a
steep grade as the water very soon works under the concrete and
destroys it.
Provision should be made for draining Elm street and there are-
also many concrete sidewalks in the centre of the town that need
top-dressing. A word of explanation may be needed in regard to
Summit avenue. We expended as per pay roll, $740.43. The bal-
ance of the sum voted was expended for drain pipe, blacksmith work
and tools but as we used about $40 worth of dynamite from the stone
crusher, the appropriation did not suffer by the money that was spent
for tools. As the town has expended nearly $1,900 for teams it might
be well for them to consider the advantage of owning their own
teams in the near future. Below we give a list of tools on hand
belonging to the Highway Department:
Five setts drills 4 drills each. 1 hoe, 14 picks, 1 potato hoe, 2 grub
hoes. 1 rake, 7 crowbars. 2 shovels, 2 striking hammers, 1 axe, 3 stone
hammers, 175 steel tape, 2 lanterns, 1 stone drag. (For an account
of soil sold see financial report.)
In closing these remarks although aware of some errors we believe
that most of the work has been well done and the men with few
eptions have given a fair day's work for a day's pay.
Respectfully submitted,
GEO. E. RICKER,
Supt of Streets.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES
OF THE
BEEBE TOWN LIBRARY.
The Trustees herewith present the 34th Annual Report of the
Beehe Town Library and Public Reading Room.
Under the new law regulating the number, method of election,
and term of service of Trustees of Public Libraries, accepted by
the town last year, the Hoard was necessarily reduced in size,
but we think the welfare of the Library has not suffered thereby,
•S, with the exception of a few members, the duties have always
s
been chiefly supervisory. The plan of electing but three mem-
bers annually and those for a term of three years, ensures at all
times the presence of some who are experienced in the work and
wants of the institution.
During the year the Town Treasurer, Mr. Skinner, in accord-
ance with the provisions of the law, has acted as our Treasurei,
and the Trustees take this opportunity to express their entire sat-
isfaction with his services, as well as their thanks for the same,
it being an addition to his former labors and without any accom-
panying compensation.
The terms of office for which Messrs. Waterman, Mitchell and
Rogers were elected having expired, it devolves upon the town to
elect by ballot three new members to serve for three years each.
FUNDS.
The endowments of the Library are as follows :
The Ilurd Fund of $2500, a bequest of the late Dr. Hurd, is
invested in a loan to the town at 4 per cent.
The Flint Fund of" $1000, a gift of our well-wisher, Mrs. Har-
riet X. Flint — would that there were more like her — is also
in the possession of the town, and draws 6 per cent, income.
The Wakefield Fund of $500, a legacy from the late Cyrus
Wakefield, is on deposit in the Savings Bank at 4 per cent,
interest.
JiO
Our total annual income, therefore, from our vested funds is
but $iSo, a small amount in comparison with the liberal endow-
ments of some of our sister libraries. However, there's a silver
lining to every cloud, and, while yearning for further benefactions,
the Trustees note with twinkling eves the increasing' number of
dogs in our town, well knowing that each new resident puppy,
on arriving at the dignity which three months age imparts, will
serve to swell the Library's revenue.
USING THE LIBRARY FOR REFERENCE.
The Trustees earnestly recommend to the citizens of the town
that those books in the Library which may properly be termed
books for reference, be more frequently consulted than heretofore.
The Library is open on Wednesday and Saturday afternoons,
during which time the Reading Room is not crowded but affords
ample accommodations for any having occasion to consult books,
which, from being cumbersome or starred cannot readily be
taken home.
Teachers having special topics to prepare on, scholars having
compositions to write, and others having various kinds of literary
work to do, can all find numbers of works in the Library which
will help them, and they will ever find our Librarian not only
willing to assist, but of great service in telling them what books to
consult. Catalogues are always to be found on the Reading
Room tables. We buv our books for use, not ornament, and are
disappointed when we find them unappreciated.
BOOK-.
We come now to the books, by far the most important topic.
In making their selection of new books the Trustees have endeav-
ored to use their best judgment in trying to cover as large a range
of subjects as their appropriation and funds would warrant. They
are well aware that if the purchasing could be done by those not
hampered bv lack of time, as well as by those who have been able to
pursue a much more general course of reading than the Trustees,
the Library would be materially benefited. We have, however,
made the best use of our time and talents we think.
The books are selected monthly by the chairman of the Book
Committee, and voted upon at their meeting occurring upon the
first Monday of each month, previous to which the several mem-
91
bera of the Committee have an opportunity to examine them. The
Chairman frequently has names of books desired by readers hand-
ed to him, and their requests, if not unreasonable, have generally
been complied with.
Among the more important additions we call attention to the
following : ( )n

In addition to the foregoing our' young readers have been sup-
plied with a host of good books, in accordance with the views of
the Trustees expressed in their last report, all of which will ap-
pear with many others, on the pages of the forthcoming Bulletin,
supplied to readers by the Librarian at a cost of five cents each.
READING ROOM.
This institution has been maintained during the year within the
limits of the appropriation granted, and has, judging from ap-
pearances, afforded much satisfaction to those who are nightly
found at its tables. The attendance and order has been uniformly
good and no complaints have been preferred. Very much, how-
ever can be done by way of improvement, and the Trustees hope
to see their way clear towards this ere long.
APPROPRIATIONS.
The Trustees recommend that the town appropriate $400 and
the proceeds of the Dog Tax for the Library, and for the Public
Reading Room $175.
For the Trustees,

Report of the School Committee.
The School Committee of the town of Wakefield, conforming
to the statute requirements, respectfully submit for the considera-
tion of its citizens a detailed report of the condition of the public
schools located within its limits, for the year commencing January
ist. [889 and ending December 31st, [889,
As the town appropriated, with its accustomed liberality, at its
annual meeting in April, [889, the amount of money which the
mmittee considered necessary to secure and retain the services
of competent teachers, and provide the schools with the sufficient
number of text book- and quantity of supplies and other incidental
means necessary to their support, the several schools have main-
tained during the year, their usual standard of proficiency, and
are at the present time in a successful condition.
A large majority of our citizens realizing that the success of
young persons, who aspire to engage in after life in some useful
and profitable employment largely depends upon their intelligence,
and knowing also, that intelligence is the main pillar upon which
this republic chiefly rests, the town has from year to year liberally
appropriated from its resources, the means to provide for all chil-
dren living within its boundaries, the privileges and advantages
for instruction in the various branches of education, essential to
perform in a proper and intelligent manner the duties of an
American citizen. The common schools being the foundation
upon which the future and higher intelligence of a large majority
of the children in this country rests, the committee urge with
earnestness as in previous reports,, for all classes of citizens to
support and maintain by their influence and votes the free system
of public schools, and by their counsel to stimulate in the young
an ambition to use their educational privileges, so as to derive all
the benefits which they confer.
ATTENDANCE AT SCHOOL AM) EMPLOYMENT OF CHILDREN.
The committee in their last annual report fully considered this
subject, but it is evident from personal observation and informa-
134
tion, that many parents and guardians do not understand, that
they are legally required to educate the children who are under
their care and management before reaching1 the age of sixteen
years, and the employment of such children in certain business
occupations is either forbidden or regulated by law.
The attention of Mich parents and guardians is particularly
directed to the fact, that the law requires every child between
eight and fourteen years of age, for six years, to receive yearly
twenty weeks schooling in some private or public school, where
the branches of learning required in the common schools are
taught, or has otherwise received an equivalent instruction in the
same studies, unless the child is prevented from attending school
or receiving instruction by BOme physical or mental disability.
The law relating to the employment of children between eight
and sixteen years of age. for compensation, is closely connected
in principle and object to the law which guarantees and should
secure to everv child a good common school education. This Law
forbids the employment of any child under thirteen years of age
in any factory, workshop, or mercantile establishment under any
circumstances, or to engage in any inside work, or any kind of em-
ployment for compensation during the daily sessions of the public
schools in the place where the child resides, unless such child has
attended school twenty weeks during the year next prior to such
employment.
The law also prohibits the employment of any child under
fourteen years of age in any of said establishments, or to engage
in any kind of occupation for compensation, except during the
vacations of the public schools in the town or city where the child
resides, unless the employer first signs a written statement giving
a personal description of the child and his intention to employ
him. and a certificate signed either by his father, mother or guar-
dian stating when and where born, date of birth and age of
the child, which certificate must be approved by some person ap-
pointed bv the school authorities, and certified by him. that the
child can read and write and has attended school twenty weeks as
required bv law.
The law applies to children under sixteen years of age, when
employed in any situation or manner as therein described. It is
the duty of employers, parents and guardians having children
under their care and management between the ages mentioned, to
135
furnish, prepare and sign the necessary ticket and certificate. before
they receive the approval of the school authorities, but as a rule
during the year, children have .seen the committee and requested
a permit to work for Mr. so and so. followed by the statement,
•• he sent me for it."
The committee are not required or allowed to issue working
permits, but onl} approve and certify to certain facts, concerning'
the child, known or believed to be true, in a stated manner or form
which will legall) authorize an\ person to employ the child as
pro\ ided 1>\ the law .
I\i sons convicted of violating this law shall be punished by a
tine not less than twent\ nor more than fifty dollars. Many
parents in town during the year having the care and custody of
children between the ages described, either from pecuniary neces-
sity or a desire to swell their bank account, have transferred their
children from the school room to factories and other places of
manual employment. Statistical authority informs us that 17,000
children under the age of fourteen years are employed in the state
in the work of manufacturing, a large majority of whom, living
: > exercise the rights and perform the duties of citizenship, will
bring to their work a disordered physical system and a weak in-
tellectual ability, for it is a -physiological fact that the bodily strength
and mental faculties of those children who are daily confined to
monotonous toil in factories and workshops and denied the school
privileges provided by law, become seriously impaired before and
after reaching maturity, therefore is it an advantage or a detriment
accumulate wealth by the labor of children?
"Ill lares the land to hastening ills a prey
Where wealth aceumulates and men deeav."
TRU W'CY.
The committee are authorized to appoint two or more truant
officers whose duty requires them to examine all known ca"ses of
neglect to send children to school, and to prosecute, when directed
by the committee, by a criminal prosecution, any parent or guardian
who violates the law relating to the schooling- of children, also to
investigate the cases of minor children, who are habitual truants,
or wander about the streets or public resorts of the place where
they reside without any lawful employment, or not attending
school and growing up in ignorance. Children convicted of com-
136
mitting any of these offences are liable to be sent to some truant
school, or other suitable situation provided for the purpose for a
length of time according to the character of the offence and the
reputation of the offenders. In the spring of 1889, the committee
appointed Messrs. George H. Teague and William W. Bessey,
truant officers, and from their report we learn, that they have in-
vestigated nearly forty cases of truancy during the vear, having
their attention directed to a large majority of the cases by the
teachers.
The committee and officers after ascertaining the facts and
circumstances connected with each case did not consider it
necessary or judicious to resort to the severe measures of a crimi-
nal prosecution, but treated them with leniency and firmness,
accompanied with kindness, for often it is chiefly through the
failure of home training, or the want of any training at all, that
this class of children are "more sinned against, than sinning, "
therefore in dealing with them the severe penalties of the law
should not be enforced until all other means fail to restrain them
from continuing in their evil course of life, for persons confined in
our penal institutions for crime generally lose the respect of
others, and frequently self respect, therefore care should be exer-
cised, before this unfortunate class are treated as incipient crimi-
nals, for it has been wisely and truly said, ''the first step down-
ward is to sink in the estimation of others, the next and fatal step
is to sink in one's own estimation."
NEW AND IMPROVED SCHOOL BUILDINGS.
It is generallv a conceded fact among our citizens informed on
the subject, that in certain localities of the town new and improved
school accommodations are required to meet the present and
future needs of the children herein residing.
This subject was considered by the town at its annual meeting
in April, 1S89, and referred to a committee of fifteen including
the school committee, and their report will be presented to the
town for its consideration at the next annual meeting in March.
The question of necessity is obviously settled and only the ques-
tion of location and expenses remains for adjustment. The school
committee consider their duty performed when they have stated
the facts connected with the subject, and leaving to the town,
without argument, to fix the locality for the new building and to
137
make the necessary appropriations. The last annual school report
contained the information, that certain schools located in the
center of the town should be relieved from their crowded numbers
and removed into more suitable and convenient accommodations.
These schools comprised the Center ist Grammar, Center 3rd
Grammar, Center 2nd Intermediate and Center 2nd Primary.
The Hamilton Intermediate and the West Primary schools
have been excessively crowded during the year, and the prospec-
tive growth of the town in the western locality will increase
rather than diminish the necessity of providing additional school
accommodations. The committee have been informed by obser-
vation and experience that parents prefer to send their children to
school towards, rather than from the center; therefore they would
recommend, if the town concludes to build only one school house,
to build that one of sufficient dimensions, and locate it in the
center of the town, so as to conveniently accommodate the largest
number of scholars.
It is difficult to harmonize all individual objections raised
against building a school house in any particular locality There-
tore, as a public measure, individuals should yield their personal
objections, when their public rights are not denied, which they
may have to any plan or system offering the greatest convenience
and most benefit to the Largest number of citizens. This we
believe to be the right policy of good citizenship. The Inter-
mediate and Primary school rooms in the Franklin school
house are so limited in dimensions and poorly ventilated for the
number of children attending school therein, that we seriously
question if a good husbandman with a moderate regard for his
reputation as being a '; man merciful to his beast," in providing
shelter for the safety and health of his stock, would have an equal
number of young animals in these rooms in their present
condition.
The state authorities have called the attention of the committee
to the necessity of making alterations and improvements in the
building, which will remove the existing difficulty, and through the
committee the town's attention -is directed to the same subject.
VENTILATION.
Study of any kind, the mere act of living, is a consuming-
process. Air and food constitute the fuel for our bodies. If they
138
are poor the result will appear in languid, listless actions and feel-
ing, and a disinclination, often a positive inability to perforin our
work.
If good air and an even temperature are required to maintain a
healthy physical and mental system it is never more imperative
than when the brain is busy and the body inactive. But that
these atmospheric eonditions are not always present when they are
most required, will be evident to any person visiting some of our
overcrowded school rooms. In these rooms a close, disagreeable
odor, especially pronounced during the winter months, when
windows are necessarily closed, will be found to exist.
Teachers cannot work with energy themselves nor obtain good
results from their pupils without an adequate supply of fresh air.
Frequent complaints of headaches from teachers and scholars
in several of our overcrowded rooms have convinced us that it is
imperative that the cause should at onci be removed. •• The
cause of the trouble is commonly stated to be the presence of
carbonic acid in the air which we inhale, • * * * hut so far from
its being the principal evil in vitiated air, it is proved by experi-
ment that a still larger proportion of carbonic acid than is con-
tained in the close air of an unvcntilatcd room maybe mixed with
ordinary air, and breathed without inconvenience.
We must, then, seek further for sufficient causes for the foul
condition of the air in an occupied room. We shall discover in
it not only this deleterious acid, but in still greater proportion the
watery vapor and the animal matter thrown off' by both lungs and
skin. This vapor contains animal matter, which seems to putrefy
almost immediately after being thrown into the air. It is the
source of the vile odor in ill-ventilated rooms, and, in its effects on
the health, is far more dangerous than carbonic acid gas. *
Xo surer or more exact test than a well-educated nose has. as yet,
been discovered to measure the amount of vitiated animal matter
that is thrown into the air. The air we breathe is exhausted of
its life-giving power after a few inhalations. We are then forced
to conclude, from the nature of the evil, and from the imperative
necessity of its entire removal, that no remedy can be successful,
which does not ensure a full and complete renewal of the air in
the room as often as it becomes foul or dead. Nothing less than
an absolute change of the whole volume of air can accomplish
the object. How often this must be done within a given time,
139
must depend upon the size of the room, and the number and age
of the persons occupying it."
The above is quoted from a paper by the late A. C. Martin,
written about twenty years ago, and sanitary experts of the pres-
ent day agree with Mr. Martin in all essential points.
Prof. F. W. Draper says: "The ordinary conditions of the
unrenewed air of a school room are quite enough to astonish us,
if we stop a moment to think of them. For there are not only
the inevitably vitiating effects produced by respiration and the
constant activity of the skin in persons who are healthy and
cleanly, but the additional exhalations proceeding from unclean
bodies, from ill-odorcd mouths, from decaying teeth, from dirty
clothing, too frequently accompany the school boy or school girl
to the crowded room which is the scene of their daily tasks."
"The act of respiration and the emanations from the person,
which, though insensibly, are constantly taking place, yitiate it to
a serious extent. But all good air contains about four parts of
carbonic acid gas to 10,000, which amount may be slightly
increased by the admixture of human breath, without rendering
it close and offensive. Suppose fifty children are confined in a
school room twenty feet by thirty, and ten feet high. These
children will spoil about one hundred and fifty feet of air in one
minute, or nine thousand feet per hour, or twenty-seven thousand
feet in three hours, a usual half day's session. But the room
holds only six thousand eubic feet of air, the whole of which
these children would spoil in forty minutes. Does not this
simple fact show the absolute necessity of ventilation?"
Regarding the " standard of the best authorities," while they
differ somewhat, as to the exact amount of fresh air necessary, it
is agreed that a fair average is about ten thousand cubic feet per
hour, or about thirty-three feet per minute. This is upon the
basis of two hundred and fifty cubic feet of air space in the room
to each scholar. If the room is small or overcrowded then the
air must be changed much oftener than with the above conditions.
Dr. J. G. Pinkham of Lynn, who made an extended report in the
19th annual report of the State Board of Health, on the ventila-
tion of school rooms says :
•• A reasonable estimate of the amount of fresh air required by
the pupils of an ungraded school would be two thousand cubic
feet eaoh per hour. For a school room containing ten thousand
140
cubic feet of air-space, and accommodating forty-five pupils, this
would mean that eightv thousand cubic feet of fresh air must be
supplied each hour, or that the air of the room must be changed
completely once in every seven and one-half minutes. The im-
possibility of effecting such a result in cold weather, and of
keeping the room warm at the same time, with the means of
heating and ventilating in common use, must be apparent to
any one ; and without regard to the temperature of the room, it
would be difficult to effect it except by means of widely opened
windows or doors, and a strong breeze blowing directly in. * * *
It air should enter at the rate of two hundred lineal feet per min-
pUte — a liberal estimate — the amount supplied would be ten thou-
sand cubic feet per hour, — just one-eighth of what would be
needed. * * * * and we ^till do not have enough to prevent the
air of the room from becoming decidedly foul, and remaining so
during a considerable portion of the time when the school is in
session. Hut even this limited air supply involves a certain
amount of danger in cold weather from drafts and unequal heat-
ing. The evil is not imaginary • It is extremely common for
children who are compelled to sit near open windows in school
rooms to complain of the draft, and to take cold from this cause."
W e might quote indefinitely from equally reliable sources, and
it\\ would agree in essential points winch are not theoretical
simply, but which have been proved practical and sensible.
In January, [889, an order was received by the committee from
J. T. White. Inspector, and approved by Rltfus Wade, Chief of
the District Police, to improve the ventilation of the High School
building, the old High and Grammar school buildings, and the
Franklin street building, to the standard of the best authorities.
In consideration of the fact that the town were considering the
erection of a new school building, which might relieve two of the
buildings, the matter by consent of the state authorities was
allowed to rest for the time, but now at the end of another year
we find ourselves practically in the same condition as one year
ago. It is hardly to be supposed that the state authorities will as
readily acquiesce in another postponement.
The act under which the above order was issued, was passed
March 20, icSSS and can be found in the Acts and Resolves of
that year. Chap. 149.
This law impresses one as being extreme in its provisions. Hut
141
what docs it require? Simply that public buildings including
school houses, shall be kept clean and supplied with wholesome
air, through some approved method of ventilation, and provided
\\ ith suitable water closets.
This law cannot fail ultimately to result in great good to the
pupils in our schools b\ directing public attention and the atten-
tion of School Boards to a most important question, and one not
well understood.
Chief Wade s;i\s in his annual report in regard to appliances:
•' II is no part of th* duties of the Inspection Department of the
District Police to designate what particular system or method of
\iiitilation is most effective, and t<> insist upon the adoption of
the selected scheme. The results which can be reached and de-
termined after proper investigation are what we expect or require."
Briefly stated the} require the introduction to school rooms of a
veiy much larger amount of pure air than formerly, and the
removal of the foul air, and that this shall be done in such a
manner as to keep the rooms of even temperature ami free from
drafts. Systems and appliances are left entirely to the discretion
of School Boards.
In January, [889, '^m ^># Perkins, civil engineer of Lynn,
Mass., who had charge of the improvements in ventilation of
some of the Lynn school buildings, was engaged by the Commit-
to make estimates of the cost of ventilating the buildings
mentioned, and the results were reported at the annual town
meeting in April.
The town voted to refer the matter to the School Committee
for investigation and to obtain plans and detailed estimates of the
expense. The School Committee employed Mr. Perkins to make
those estimates, and he has submitted two plans, one being essen-
tially the same as that used ^.iccessfully in some of the Lynn
school buildings by jacketed stoves : the other plan being to heat
by furnaces.
In the High School building it is proposed to heat and ventilate
the entire building below the third floor by means of one piece.
This plan contemplates heating by steam ; a necessity long recog-
nized by your committee, as the furnaces now in use are inade-
quate even for present requirements, and it must be evident that
with the supply of fresh air so largely increased, a corresponding-
increase of heating capacity is demanded.
142
The following estimates include the cost of heaters, steam
apparatus for High School building, and the construction of the
requisite ventilating chimney stacks and all connecting flues.
The estimates for the two systems are as follows :
JACKETED STOVES.
Old High School building, . . . . . $1,122 00

building (by steam) ..... $3,428 00
While the second system is the most expensive to introduce,
there is a very large saving in fuel and labor over the jacketed
stove system.
SCHOOL BUILDINGS.
The sub-committee on prudential affairs have the general care and
oversight of the school buildings for the purpose of keeping them in
repair and the grounds and fences around them. The expenses con-
nected with this department have not increased for several years, the
appropriation for the past four being $1300, and for three years
previous to the last four $2700, $2000 and $1500 respectively. Some
of the yards require grading against the concrete walks, and new
fences should be built around a portion of Academy Hill. Many of
the land owners adjoining the Hill, ^f not all, claim that the town
should pay all of the expense incurred in building the fences, but the
committee do not understand that any different principle applies in
this case than is generally applied when abutters build division fences
between their adjoining lands, each being required to pay his propor-
tional part of the cost.
All of the school buildings, except the High and Hamilton, should
be painted for their general appearance and protection from the
weather. A special appropriation should be made by the town this
year for this purpose, and it would be a wise, practical measure for
143
the town to appropriate yearly a certain amount of money to be used
at the discretion of the committee in painting the school buildings
which most require it. This course of action would remove the
s i t \* of making a large appropriation at any given time for this
purpose, and keep the buildings in a better condition for the future
than they have been in the past.
PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
( )ur report presents the record of the usual characteristics con-
cerning our schools which have appeared iu former reports.
Harmony, whicfe is so essential to secure the desired purpose for
which our schools were established and are maintained, has prevailed
between the school authorities, teachers, parents and scholars.
Teachers have applied themselves with fidelity and zeal to their
work, the scholars have generally been faithful and diligent in their
studies, and parents, if not accepting, have not complained of the
results attained by the schools as unsatisfactory. Under these favor-
ing circumstances, the progress of the several schools in their line of
work has been constant and progressive, and their present condition
merits public approval.

This is one of the most important grades in our common school
system and should receive that support from the public, care and
attention from the school authorities, as will secure and retain that
class of teachers who are especially qualified by natural and acquired
abilities to manage and discipline young children when commencing
their school life. It is desirable to have the services of competent
teachers in every grade of schools, and more especially in this grade,
for it has been truly said, "The teacher of a Primary School sweetens
or embitters the waters at the foundation."
At the commencement of the fall term more scholars entered the
Hamilton Intermediate School than the room would accommodate,
consequently several pupils were transferred to the West Primary,
classifying that school into two Intel mediate and two Primary
grades. Increasing the number of scholars and classes required an
increase in the teaching force, and Miss M. A. Currier was appointed
assistant teacher. Both instructors are obliged to conduct their
school exercises in the main school room, having no other place,
which on account of the disturbance necessarily produced in the
school by this joint action, seriously interferes and prevents the
teachers and scholars from realizing the best results from their labors.
- Miss A. E. Tucker, assisted by Miss H. Horton, instructed the
Centre 2nd Primary until the close of the Summer term, when Miss
Tucker resigned in consequence of ill health. At the commence-
ment of the fall term Miss Carrie L. Mason was appointed principal
and Mrs. Florence Allen assistant teacher.
145
Miss E. F. Emerson, teacher in Centre Primary No. i, after four
irs of successful service in our primary schools, resigned, to fill a
similar situation in Maiden for a larger compensation than she
received from this town, and Miss Clara P. Riggs, a teacher of
excellent attainments for the position, was appointed, and has had
charge of tlu* school since Sept. ioth, 1889.

This is one grade in advance of the Primary and divided into three
divisions, known as the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Intermediate schools or
classes.
The 1st, 2nd and 3rd Centre Intermediate Schools contain only-
one division while the Franklin and Hamilton schools of this grade
contain two divisions, because the number of scholars belonging to
any one division living within the limits of the two last mentioned
school districts, are not sufficient to furnish pupils enough to make a
school of suitable size. Schools of this grade are in a successful
condition, and the scholars are learning "the cardinal lessons of
punctuality, promptness, cleanliness, silence, industry, self-controJ,
attention and application." Miss Lucy E. Evans, teacher of the
Centre 2nd Intermediate School, after six years of faithful and effi-
148
cient services, resigned her position in Sept., to accept an appoint-
ment as instructor in a school at Arlington, and Miss E. R. Sanborn
was transferred from Woodville school to the vacant situation.

GRAMMAR SCHOOLS.

Number of teachers, ....... 10.
This grade is arranged into four divisions, known as the Advanced,
First, Second and Third Grammar schools or classes. The Green-
wood, Franklin and West schools each contain the Third Cram-
mar and one or more divisions of the Intermediate grade, for
the same cause which makes it a necessity to have different grades in
some of the Intermediate schools. The general efficiency and suc-
cess of the Grammar schools during the year is the combined result
of duties well and faithfully performed by the teachers, and the
degree of interest manifested by the scholars in their school work.
Only two changes of teachers have occurred during the year in this
department of our schools. Miss Mattie E. Bruce, who taught the
Centre 1st Grammar until the close of the summer term, resigned,
and Miss L. F. Ingram, formerly a teacher in our schools, but who
had been absent for one year, at her personal request for rest and
study, was appointed to fill the vacant situation. Miss C. P. Riggs,
assistant teacher in the Advanced Grammar school, having accepted
the teacher's position in the Centre 1st Primary, Miss Alice S. Apple-
ton of Marblehead, a lady of excellent teaching qualifications,
received the appointment to the assistant's position vacated by Miss
Riggs.

UNGRADED SCHOOLS.
The ungraded or mixed schools are located in Montrose, Wood-
ville and North Ward, and each school contains the Grammar, Inter-
mediate and Primary grades, consisting of one Grammar, three
Intermediate and two Primary classes. The number of classes in
three different grades renders it impossible for the teachers to give
the same thought aid instruction to the pupils in each grade that
scholars receive in corresponding classes in graded schools, therefore
their improvement in the various branches of study which engages
their attention cannot be of so marked a character as may be made
155
by the pupils in those schools where the instruction and attention of
the teachers is less divided. The general progress and deportment
of the pupils in these schools testifies that they have been taught by
earnest and faithful teachers during the year. Miss E. R. Sanborn
was transferred in September to the Centre 2nd Intermediate School
and Miss M. A. Kalaher, formerly assistant in the same school, was
appointed to fill the vacancy.

enthusiasm in the scholars to obtain a higher degree of excellence in
their intellectual attainments, and raise the standard of scholarship,
has been in a reasonable measure realized, and the school now merits,
as it receives, the public confidence and regard.
All of the youth of our town, possessing the necessary qualifica-
tions, are 'cordially invited to avail themselves of the rich facilities
which this school affords for instruction in all the higher branches of
intellectual education, patriotism and morality.
The work in our High School during the past year has been one
of close application and progress. No change has occurred in the
corps of teachers, a cause for satisfaction, — as the frequent interrup-
tions from such changes are a great detriment to the best work in any
school. An endeavor has been made to improve the condition of the
school in many directions. More system has been observed in the
arrangement of studies, a higher standard of scholarsJiip has been re-
quired, and more thorough work has been performed. Great atten-
tion has been given to the study of English, a policy in keeping with
the demand of the times and the wishes of the people. The use of
the Chemical Laboratory, mentioned in the last report, has proved
the wisdom of the expense incurred in preparing it for use and occu-
pation. Much interest has been aroused in scientific thought, and
the valuable lessons of observation and personal investigation have
been taught with signal success.
The College preparatory work has been put upon a more thor-
ough and systematic basis and its results are gratifying. Graduates
from the school in the class of '89 have passed successful examina-
tions for entrance into Harvard University, Boston University, and
the School of Technology. While the High School is not primarily,
a fitting school, it is pleasing, however, to note that our young peo-
ple can be prepared for higher schools of learning without extra ex-
pense to the parent, and remain under the valuable influence of the
home.
Several text books which have been in use for many years, have
been exchanged for later and better editions, thereby enabling us to
keep our school with the advance of science and the newer ideas and
methods of the present.
Believing that a hall of learning ought to be a place of attraction,
the large room in the High School building was papered on ceiling
and wall during the summer vacation, and curtains in harmony with
the general effect of the room have replaced those which had seen
\
158
years of service. To meet the increased demand for opportunity to
consult reference books and atlases, two book cases have been built
in the rear of the large study room. The scholars likewise have
caught the spirit of beautifying their schoolroom, and busts of Wash-
ington and Lincoln, and four large and costly pictures have been
added to the ornaments of the room. These improvements added
to a room originally well adapted for its purpose, and attractive in
appearance, furnish for our young people a study-room which is sur-
passed for usefulness and beauty by few schools in the state.
The military department of the school is continuing to do splendid
work, and the change from a company to a battalion was deemed
wise for purpose of comparison and rivalry in drill.
The purpose of the drill is not a primary object of the school, but
it is intended to assist in the physical development of the cadets, as
well as being a great help in the better discipline of the school. In
the future, promotion to office in the battalion will depend first of
all upon deportment, second, scholarship, and third, military proficien-
cy. Promptness and obedience should be the prominent lessons of
the military drill, and an earnest effort will be made to make it a val-
uable aid to the efficiency of the school.
The school needs at the present time better facilities in regard to
reference books. There is no modern Encyclopaedia in the school
library, and other books, such as gazetteers and dictionaries are in
poor condition or entirely wanting.
If the school continues to receive the liberal support from the citi-
zens of the town as in the past, we feel sure that our High School
will continue to advance in efficiency and be an honor to the town.
The Committee, acting under the State authorities, ordered a fire
escape for the school, which was constructed under the direction of
Mr. George H. Teagne on the northerly side of the building, and
meets the necessary requirements.
Wednesday evening, June 26th, 1889, a large and appreciative
audience attended the exercises of the graduating class in the Town
Hall, which were noted for the literary qualifications manifested by
the scholars in their essays, and their pleasing and easy address in
declaiming. The following is the programme of the exercises :

CONCLUSION.
The school work, for the Committee yearly increases in proportion
as the number of schools grows larger and new duties are imposed
by additional laws. Much time, thoughtful attention and careful
work are required to select, purchase and deliver text books and
supplies and attend to the prudential affairs for twenty-three schools,
ntaining nearly twelve hundred pupils, examine and adjust difficul-
ties which frequently arise between parents, teachers and scholars,
grant permits for children to enter school and transfer them from one
school to another, sign certificates for them to engage in some busi-
ness employment, employ teachers and arrange their monthly pay
roll, visit each school, not as the law requires on some day in the
first and last two weeks of the school, and also once each month,
but as necessary circumstances may require and opportunity permit,
and attend to numerous other matters relating to and connected with
the several schools. The time has been, is now, and ever will be,
while the number of schools and children attending them, remain as
at present, that these duties can be better attended. to and performed
for the better and higher interests of the schools, town and state by
one qualified person, specially designated and paid for that purpose,
than by any number of men, having the best qualifications for that
position, but whose time and attention are well occupied in caring for
and attending to their own individual and private business.
The term of service for which Mr. Selim S. White and Mr. Melvin
J. Hill was chosen, terminates at the close of the present school year,
creating two vacancies in the School Board, which the town must
supply at its next annual meeting.
The Committee heartily thank the parents, teachers and scholars
for their concurrent efforts in aiding and assisting them in their
official duties, which though arduous, and at times vexatious, have
been made easy and pleasant.
Respectfully signed,
SELIM S. WHITE, Chairman^

AUDITORS' FINAL STATEMENT.
During the year ending Jan. 31, 1890, the Selectmen have
drawn 8^4 orders on the Treasurer, amounting to $59,264.82,
and representing between 11 and 12 hundred bills, which we have
examined and certify to be correct. We have also examined the
books of the Collector of Taxes and find them correct, and the
account of T. J. Skinner, as Treasurer of the Public Library and
Reading Room, which is correct. The receipts of all depart-
ments pacing over money to the Town Treasurer have been
verified. The details of expenditures in the different departments
will be found on pages 97 to 132. The accounts of the Libiary
and Reading Room are inserted between pages 94 and 95. No
town orders were drawn for these bills as the law puts it in
charge of the Town Treasurer if the town so elect. The amount
paid out b\ the Treasurer on this account, $1,365.05, and on
town debt and interest, $6,265.12. added to the amount of town
orders drawn as above, $59,264.^2. will give the total expendi-
tures, as shown in our final balance sheet (page 132) $66,894.99.
We have examined the accounts of T. J. Skinner, Town Treas-
urer, (pages 6S and 69), and find them correct and well kept,
with proper vouchers for all receipts and payments, and that he
has a cash balance of $2,318.77 on deposit in the Xat. Bank of
South Reading. We also certify that he holds $10,000 in town
bonds as stated on page 71, (C. Sweetser Lecture Fund), and
$3,000 in town of Wakefield notes, (see page 70), representing
the Hurd and Wakefield Library Funds, and has $1,000 deposited
in Wakefield Savings Bank, (C. Sweetser Burial Lot Fund).
So far as the finances of the town come under our supervision
we find them well managed and we believe them to be so through-
out. It only remains for the voters to exercise a wholesome
economy where needed, and a prudent liberality where the honor
and welfare of the town are concerned.

REPORT OF BOARD OF HEALTH.
The result of the annua] election in 1890, for Board of Health,
snowed that Mr. J. B. Wiley, Dr. J. W. Heath and Dr. J. A.
O'Leary were chosen to serve for the ensuing year; but Dr.
Heath declining to qualify, it was necessary to proceed according
to Chap. 307, Acts of 1885.
Accordingly a joint meeting of the Boards of Selectmen and
Health, was held March 21, and Mr. C. E. Niles was chosen to
lill the vacancy.
Organization was affected by the choice of Mr. Wiley as chair-
man and Dr. O'Leary as secretary. It was voted at the first meet-
ing that Mr. C. K. Niles be appointed * 'agent and Health Officer"
for the year.
Last year's Board made a suggestion that the Health Officer be
a man who gave his entire time to public duties in the town, claim-
ing that the work would be accomplished with better satisfaction
and that better results would be obtained.
The experience of the past year proves this to be true, for the
work has been more satisfactorily performed and the results have
been all that could be expected. There has been less friction and
a much more ready compliance with the rules of the Board than in
some previous years. A request to abate a nuisance has been fol-
lowed by immediate attention and ail notices and orders have been
promptly complied with, so that the duties of the Health Officer
have been less arduous than heretofore. This is as it should be,
and has been due to the executive ability of the Health Officer as-
sisted by the fact that he was also Chief of Police.
The retiring Board sincerely hopes that the work of the future
Boards will run as smoothly as that of 1890.
54
DISEASES AND DEATHS.
The past year has been one filled with sickness and all the
anxiety and distress accompanying it.
From the early days of the year when everybody had the Influ-
enza, through the long hot summer with its attending diseases, to
the closing epidemic of Scarlet Fever and Measles, it has been one
long siege of illness.
The death rate has increased, but not in proportion to the amount
of sickness and the character of the diseases. La Grippe was with
us and staid a while, but the number of deaths immediately follow-
ing its visit were few. though some died during the year from dis-
eases that followed, or were complications of it. The number of
deaths resulting from summer discuses was not above the average.
The epidemic of Scarlet Fever has been of a mild character and
the percentage of deaths has been small. The deaths occurring
have resulted from the disease taking on a malignant form, or from
some complication, as Diptheria.
Statistics show that the number of fatal cases in different epi-
demics of Scarlet Fever, varies very largely, from 3 in 100 cases
to 34 or even 40 in 100, and in one particularly severe epidemic,
.")."» in 100. The number in our town dining the present run, has
been 8 in 94 eases or 8 1-2 per cent.
The season of the year and condition of the weather usually has
no etfect upon the spread of the disease, and does not seem to
change its type, but we had comparatively few cases until cold
weather set in, and it seemed to spread most rapidly when the con-
ditions of temperature and moisture were least favorable.
The first case was reported Feb. 1, 1890, and there were no
more until June 2. The number of cases in each month, was as
follows: Feb., 1; June, 2; July, 7; Ang., 2; Sept.,|10; Oct.,
10; Nov., 22; Dec, 29; Jan., 1891, 11.
It has visited all parts of the town and at one time was so prev-
alent among children attending the schools on Academy Hill, that,
after consulting with the School Committee, it was deemed best to
close those schools for several weeks.
As an accompaniment of the Scarlet Fever we have had, and
there is still, a run of Measles. This disease, while more con-
tagious than the other, is not of so malignant a character, though
55
every case is attended by more or Jess danger, if not from the
course of the disease, from its sequelae. Parents are, in too
man y eases, apt to regard both of these fevers as something- that
children must have, and think the sooner they get them the better
f or the children. They look upon it as some boys do smoking ;
they never will be men until they can smoke without getting sick;
and these parents appear to think that their children cannot grow
up until they have had all the diseases of childhood. Taking this
erroneous view of it. they take Little or no pains to protect them
• in contagion, and in some instances deliberately allow them to
Come into contact with some little patient who has the disease in
a mild form.
Below is a list of the contagious diseases reported to the Board;
but it does not represent the full number of cases that have
occurred in town, as there have been a great many that were not
Been by physicians, and so were not reported.
From Feb. 1, 1890, to Feb. 1, 1891, there have been of
Scarlet Fever. 94 cases with 8 deaths.

NUISANCES.
There have been no nuisances of any great importance for us
to abate this year, and all the minor ones that have come to our
notice have been carefully attended to. Improvement has been
made in the Lake Street District by a change in the course of the
outlet of the stream draining this section, but it will not be in good
condition until the entire stream has been carefully cleared,
obstructions removed, and a free water course made.
Every summer the Road Commissioners find it necessary to
clean out several times the catch basins of the drain on Main
Btreet, and the materia] removed and the accompanying odor
clearly prove that something besides rain water Mows through the
drain.
If this drain which was laid years ago. and has a Dumber of pri-
vate drains emptying into it. was intended for a public sewer, it
should have been constructed so that the openings on the Main
Btreet would not act as chimneys for the escape of foul air. Pri-
vate drains, overflow from cesspools, in short, no drain of any
kind has a light to empty into this main drain which we under-
stand was constructed solely to receive and carry away the
t-xcess of rain water from the Btreet.
By SOme mistake the builders of the basement of the proposed
G. A. R. hall were given permission to connect a drain from the
cellar with the main drain. The Board of Health is the only
body having power to grant a permit in such a case, and this we
did not do and would not. had application been made. As the
building has not been erected or the drain used, the matter has
not come before us or received our official attention.
The open drain or water way running parallel with, and east of,
Main street has been thoroughly cleaned and opened up.
There i- one spot in our town that is not a credit to it, is not
pleasant to behold, and in hot weather is far from agreeable to
approach. That is the pond at the Centre Depot. Its present
use is as a receiving basin for several drains, and it looks like and
act- as ii large open cesspool. Now there is no reason for its
existence; it Berves no special purpose, is not beneficial in any
way; in fact, has no redeeming qualities and many bad one-.
The drains which empty into it could be continued or united into
57
ge one at this point and the rest of the surface covered in,
making land that in a few years would be valuable. The value
of the land thus made would cover the expense, the appearance
of thi^ part of the town would be greatly improved, and we are
•■ the sanitary condition would be benefitted.
SEWERAGE 81 STEM.
At tlic annual town meeting held in April, l.s.x.x, a committee
- chosen to consider the subject of a sewerage system, and this
mmittee consulted a civil engineer who surveyed the town, drew
up a plan and gave an estimate of the cost.
The report of this committee will be found in the Town Report
- I and contains much valuable information on this impor-
tant matter. The committee strongly urged that the town give
subject early and serious consideration, but no action was
tuk»ii. and not any since, so that the matter has slipped from the
public mind. The need is just as urgent to-day, and more so, as
the population has increased and more houses have been built and
OC< 1 since the report was made.
1 • e present Board has no new ideas to offer and no suggestions
to make, but wishes to brin<j. the attention of the voters to this
necessity, and we earnestly hope that the public mind will be fixed
upon it and not taken off until it is finally settled.
rge undertakings require great and constant pressure to start
them, and this sewerage question will have to go through a great
deal of steady agitation before it comes to an issue; so the sooner
we commence to agitate, the sooner the work will be done.

During the year, the recommendation made in my last report,
relative to furnishing more adequate accommodations for persons
applying for lodgings, has been met by the town, and a room
with eleven bunks for night lodgers, has been constructed, and two
additional cells for prisoners, added to the original number in the
lockups. I desire, in this connection, to urge the necessity which
now exists, for immediate action on the part of the town, for the
separation of female prisoners or lodgers from men who are now
lers.

lodged in the tramp room or confined in the cells. The necessity
for this action is apparent, when we consider that insane persons
and Women of respectable appearance and manners, awaiting trial,
are now obliged to occupy quarters in direct connection with pris-
oners whose moral sense recognizes no qualification of speech or
action as between sexes, and who, as experience has shown during
the year, Launch forth invective and filth, regardless of the pres-
ence of woman. I therefore recommend that a separate cell be
constructed for the sole use of female prisoners, lodgers or insane.
FOURTH OF .11 I. V CELEBRATION.
A matter of serious concern to the people is presented in the
reasonable and proper observance of our national celebration of
the independence of the United States. In conjunction with all
other patriotic citizens, 1 fully appreciate and heartily join in all
public demonstrations made on that day, but it is questionable
whether an excess of license of a mischievous and dangerous
character, is conducive to fealty and loyalty to the country, or safe
for property.
The building of large bonfires in our public streets, with the
large increase in police appointments to watch and protect prop-
erty, the danger of conflagrations, and the frightening of horses,
and danger to lives, ought, in my judgment, to serve as a warning
to the people to join in an effort to circumscribe such demonstra-
tions to a reasonable and proper limit.
The year just closed has had its full measure of responsibility,
care and duty performed. The night officers have faithfully
discharged their important trusts, and in no city or town in our
immediate vicinity can there be found officers superior in qualifi-
cations for the duty they are called upon to perform. I have
personally discharged the duties of day officer, attending to all
calls for police service in its varied and various phases and multi-
plicity of detail, of which no one, not conversant with present
demands can adequately appreciate or fully understand. The
days have frequently lengthened far into the night before the
routine of duty or demand has ceased, and it has become a matter
of public necessity to meet the increased and still increasing
demands of police work, extending as it does into innumerable and
64
widely divergent paths, to more adequately provide for ways and
means incident to such service. The amount appropriated for
personal supervision and for the ordinary and reasonable expense
necessarily incurred, is now wholly inadequate to meet the require-
ments of even a limited efficiency, while increasing necessities and
imperative calls co-operative with, and incident to, general police
accommodation maintained in other near and remote cities and
towns, makes urgent the demand for increased facilities for efficient
and satisfactory work in the administration of this office.
I therefore earnestly recommend an appropriation sufficient to
meet the just requirements of the public.

Chief of Police.

Other streets have received attention, and smaller amounts
pended thereon.
The road-scraper has been used in parts of the town where most
needed. In accordance with the vote of the town, the work, where
practicable, lias been done by contract.
A special appropriation of 81,000 was made for repairing Broad-
way. $987.35 was expended on said street. The contract was
awarded t<> X. II. Dow.
A special appropriation of $300 was made for Water street
bridge. The sum of $347.72 was expended on said bridge.
The contract was awarded to N. II. Dow.
A special appropriation of $700 was made for sidewalks on
Vernon street, but as the action of the town did not cover the in-
tent of the article, it was thought best to let the street lay over
until another year. The sum of $29 was spent on sidewalks on
said street.
A special appropriation of $1,500 was made for Main street,
as laid out by the County Commissioners, but, as an injunction
was issued on the same, nothing was done.
The town made no special appropriation for opening the ledge
for the use of the crusher, so that money had to be taken from
the general fund which was much needed on the streets.
The crusher is in good working order and has proved capable
of doing all that was anticipated. Five hundred dollars should
he appropriated to put the ledge in first-class condition; and
when once fairly opened nothing more will be needed in that direc-
tion. The ledge proves to be of excellent quality of stone and
works up to advantage.
It is hoped that a sufficient sum of money will be appropriated
the present year to put Main street in good condition.
CONCRETE.
At the annual meeting $1,000 was appropriated for concrete
work. The contract for concreting was awarded to G: W.
Killorin for 50 cents per yard.
The sum of $1,494.66 was expended for concrete as per con-
tract. $436.79 has been collected from abutters. Amount
expended by the towu, $1,057.21.

TRUSTEES' REPORT.
The Trustees herewith respectfully submit the Thirty-fifth
Annual Report of the Beebe Town Library and Public Reading
Room.
Perhaps the most important innovation to which the Trustees
would call attention, is the opening of the Library to the public
on every evening of the week. Directly after the last annual
town meeting the project was brought up, and the Board gave it
their undivided attention with the result that it was voted to open
every evening for three months as an experiment, and see if the
action would be appreciated l>y the citizens. At the end of this
time we were pleased to note the general satisfaction over the
change, and Bince then it has been open every evening and three
afternoons. This change necessitated the raising of the Libra-
rian's salary from 81"><> to .SiiOO, including the compensation of
her assistant ; bul we are satisfied that the money could not have
been better expended.
We all know how short a time lias elapsed since free town
libraries were almost unheard of. Many of us even remember
when the library at home consisted of the Bible, Pilgrim's
Progress, the Annual Almanac, the two or three gaudily bound
books on the table, in the "best room," and our school books.
If we wanted to read more, we had either to hoard our earnings
and buy or go to our more fortunate friends and borrow, the
asperating story of the good boy in the Sunday-school Library
book seldom satisfying our wants. What a change now, and at
a cost of almost nothing to each citizen! This brings us to the
all-important subject :
#
BOOKS.
Our purchases during the year have been almost the usual num-
ber, the amount expended being perhaps a little less than that of
the previous year. In character we do not, in fact cannot, differ
much from other town libraries. The demand in all public
libraries is and always has been, first of all, for fiction. In our
78
selection of it we, however, have been particular to see that it is
pure and wholesome. In addition to this we have tried to secure
such novels as contain facts of history, discovery, invention
science and general information, which, like unpalatable medicine,
can readily be taken when hidden beneath a sugar coating. We
are gratified that the criticisms upon our selections have been so
charitable, for Ave are well aware that there have been, are, and
we claim, must be, grounds for criticising the wisdom of some of
them. The Board is composed of busy men, and the office
of purchasing agent requres one of general education and liberal
ideas, to which he must add a study of the catalogue, constant
investigation of the Library's resources, an ever open ear to
requests, and a diligent scanning of book reviews — all of which
take time, and with most of us time is money, and this is a
work of love. The difficulties attending the selection of books
for our Library only become manifest when one is confronted
at the hook store with an interesting and valuable work, and the
questions arise — have we got it? If not, what have we upon
the subject, and are our works antiquated <>r do they contain the
latest thought and information ? Or again, how many are there
among our readers who would take it from the shelves? Any one
truly interested in books at once realizes that the days are not
long enough to do judicious buying, let alone his own business.
The remedy is as yet beyond our grasp, hut it can easily be seen
that if the library could afford to pay a person liberally educated
and having the advantage of an extensive course of reading,
for devoting the necessary time, books could be bought much more
cheaply, and, more than all, systematically, with a thorough
understanding of what the Library needs. Until such time
arrives the Trustees will devote as much of their time as they can,
and ask for charity in criticism.
ACCOMMODATIONS.
We very much need more room for our books. The important
Government documents and reports are gradually being closeted
to make room for new books more frequently called for, but there
is no help for it until new quarters are provided. We doubt
if there are many other town libraries the size of ours with accom-
modations so meagre.
79
It seems a pity that among the many schemes suggested, for
the town to build engine houses nnd spacious quarters for other
town institutions, no one of its citizens has the Library in view.
It will not do to say we have books enough and must cease to buy
until our people read what we already have. Novels are not the
only hooks read; on the contrary, we have many diligent seekers
for information among the Library's patrons, and they want the
latest and hest thoughts of the leading writers of the age, the
results <>f the most recent diseoyeries. researches, and inventions,
Tempora mutardur. Who, save from motives of curiosity, will
call for a work on Literature, Science, Travel, Invention, or Art,
published in L790, when one of Lasl year's issue can be had?
The fact is, the old hook had its mission, has served its purpose,
and nine out of every ten, uncalled for, enjoys its honored old age
on our shelve-, well cared for, as every faithful public servant
should he, in his declining years.
Tin 31 BES' ROOM.
The Trustees have had tendered to them and gratefully accepted
the use of a small room in the rear of the janitor's headquarters,
where they can hold their meetings and those of their sub-com-
mitte.
\ \« \\< 11 18 IN 0FFK I..
The terms of office for which Messrs. Beebe, Dunbar and Ker-
nan were elected to serve, haying expired, it will be necessary to
elect three Trustees at the annual meeting, for the term of three
year-' Bervioe, as provided by law.
READING ROOM.
As heretofore, the attendance at the Public Reading Room
tables has been large and orderly. The best use has been made
of the appropriation, some of the previous year's periodicals and
papers have been dropped and others more in demand, substituted.
Among the important and interesting books added to the Libra-
ry during the year, we call attention to the following : On

Our former fellow-townsman, Geo. O. Carpenter, has presented
the Library also with a set of the United States Pacific Coast Sur-
vey Reports published many years ago at a great expense, which
the Trustees acknowledge with gratitude.
The foregoing list is merely suggestive, and does not comprise
one third of the year's additions. We publish each spring a bul-
letin, uniform in style and character with the Catalogue, containing
the entire list of books added during the town year. These are
supplied at a cost of live cents each, and back numbers can
be furnished, so that readers can always have a complete cata-
logue, and be thus enabled to prepare their request slips at home,
thereby saving the annoyance of delay and crowding at the Library.
In conclusion, we recommend that the town appropriate for the
Library $400 and the proceeds of the dog-tax, and for the use of
the Heading Room the sum of $17.").
For the Trustees.
WILLIAM E. ROGERS, Secretary.

The Treasurer would recommend jthal the town raise and ap-
propriate the sum of S;;o00 for interest upon the Town Debt.
Should the town vote to build a new School Building upon
Academy Hill, as proposed, an additional sum for this purpose
would in- necessary.
I: will be necessary also to provide for the payment of twenty-
live hundred dollars of the principal of the town debt, for the
ue reason as stated in my last report, viz : the rescinding of cer-
tain votes relative to the raising of money for the payments of
loans made for the Hamilton School Building ($1500) and Park
purposes (81000) and I would recommend that the sum of $2500
be raised and appropriated for the payment of the Town Debt.

REPORT OF THE SELECTMEN,
theC " ield:
\\ the close of the present municipal year, the common duty
presents itself, of submitting for your inspection a general re-
sume of the business transacted, and the work accomplished, and
to offer such suggestions and recommendations as the experience
of the pasl and our knowledge of existing affairs may be deemed
to be for the interest of all. The year has been a prosperous
one for Wakefield. The Large increase of taxable property in
various sections of the town, the guarantee of early spring
developements of which initial action has already taken place, the
changes and developements of business^ mark the year as one of
reasonable and satisfactory progress. Undertakings which a
year ago seemed clouded with somewhat of uncertainty, have been
accomplished with certainty of benefil to the town. That part of
Wakefield known as Boyntonville has made commendable progress
and lias added to the material prosperity of the town in the
erection of a number of substantial dwelling houses, and by the
laying out and extending new streets. Greenwood Park, which
was looked upon with a degree of distrust by some, has grown in-
to prominence, and has added largely to the wealth and beauty of
the town. In the West part of the town, the skill of the artist,
the hand of the artisan and the sagacity of man has seized upon
the superior natural advantages of that section, and without doubt
the coming season will witness the beginning of what promises to
be the most attractive locality within many miles of Boston,
which the larger Boston may covet. Noticeable improvements ap-
pear on every side, and the town should be quick to welcome the
advance, and heartily encourage the capital invested and energy
exhibited by a liberal, well directed and comprehensive plan of
co-operation in public measures calculated to promote, foster and
advance the common weal.
104
DRAINAGE OF LAKE STREET DISTRICT.
B}T a vote of the town the matter of the drainage of the Lake
street district so called, was referred to the Selectmen. A long
delay occurred, caused by an inability to make satisfactory ar-
rangements with the Boston and Maine Railroad concerning their
part in the roadbed excavations and the course to follow. This de-
lay carried the work along to late in the season, and the results
obtained, although satisfactory in the main, hindered the com-
pletion of the work, and practically Leaves it for the coming sum-
mer to make the conditions favorable to its further continuance.
In connection and intimately associated with this matter is the
petition of citizens in the Lake street district for the rebuilding of
the bridge on Lake street, which is a pari of the relief sought from
the flooding of land in that locality, and in order that we may
reap the full benefit of what has already been accomplished, we
recommend that a reasonable appropriation be made to complete
the work already undertaken.
Various article- referred to the Selectmen by vote of the town
relative to the location of street lights have received attention.
and such lights established as directed by the town.
■
Hydrants have been located, and contracts made with the Wake-
field Water Company as the town have by vote ordered.
The suits of Rebecca ('. Arrington and Frank McGlory against
the town have not as yet been brought to trial.
The suit of Hattie I). M. Clark againsl the town has been
settled by the payment of the award and costs of suit, as ordered
by vote of the town.
Mr. II. Irving Eaton has presented to the Hoard a claim for
injuries sustained on the highway, for which nominal damages are
claimed, and which will be the subject of an article in the town
warrant for the consideration of the town.
In view of the fact that no action has ever been taken to estab-
lish a uniform certificate of commendation as provided for in the
Jonathan Nichols temperance and tobacco pledge, this Board,
deeming the matter one of importance, prepared a certificate and
submitted the same to Mr. Nichols, who heartily approved the
plan of having a plate engraving executed, and voluntarily offered
to bear the expense made necessary by its adoption. The certificate
105
has been carefully executed under the competent direction of Col.
W. S. Greenough, and is now issued to persons entitled thereto.
The matter referred to the Selectmen relative to furnishing
additional accommodations for prisoners has received attention
and two new cella have been constructed, and a separate apart-
ment for night Lodgers built in the lockup. In this connection we
recommend thai an additional room or cell be constructed for the
use of female prisoners. It is commonly asserted, and we believe
with reason, thai insanity obtains to a greater degree than at any
time heretofore. Certain it is that in the past, women suffering
with acute mania have been held for safe keeping until the neces-
iv papers could be had for their commitment. It is probably
certain thai women will in the future from that cause or some
other l»e required to occupy safe quarters. Whether of mania or
criminal offence, no woman should be required to submit to con-
finement in the Bame quarters with men, especially if such con-
finement compels an indecent and disgusting association. We call
attention to the report of the Chief of Police.
Various matters referred to this Hoard have been made the sub-
ject of reports to the town in town meeting.
During the year the perambulation of the town line between
Wakefield and Lynnfield has been made, as has also the new line
between Wakefield and Stoneham, and the necessary bounds on
the Last-named Line established.
For a detailed account Of the doings of the several departments,
and the expenditures made, we refer the town to the several re-
ports herewith submitted, and the financial exhibit therein made
by the treasurer.
KAILPOAD PROTECTION.
I'pon the petition of citizens, the Board made request of the
Boston and Maine Railroad Company to establish and maintain
flagmen at the Bennett street and Richardson street crossings for
the better protection of the travelling public, which request was
complied with under the statute, and these two thoroughfares are
now properly protected.
INSUFFICIENCY OF APPROPRIATION.
It is impossible always to foresee the needs which may arise, or
the action which may be required to meet the demands of future
106
events, but when such issue presents itself, provision must be
made for its adjustment and settlement. Expenditures unlooked
for, but legitimate and necessary, have been made in several
instances, and which will be more fully explained by the Auditors'
itemized account herewith submitted, and which were not provided
for by appropriation, causing a demand in excess of the ordinary
sum appropriated.
INSIKANCK.
The insurance on the Town Hall expires this year as follows :
$37,500, March 13, 1801 ; $2,500, March 20, L891 ; and $5,00.0,
Dec. 1, 1891 ; being a total of $45,000. Other insurance expires as
follows: North School House $1000, May 9, 1891 ; Academy
Building, $1500, May L0, L891 ; South Building, Academy Hill,
82000. May 10, 1891 ; West School House, $1000, May in. 1891.
Total $6,500. Public Library $2000, May 1, L891 ; Almshouse
and Barn, S3000, July 24, L891. On the twelfth day of April,
1886; a committee appointed for that purpose recommended
"that the Selectmen be instructed to insure as follows, when the
existing policies expire:" Town Hall, $40,000; school build-
ings and Almshouse the same as herein stated. Thai report was
accepted and adopted, and the town will he called upon to take
action as they may deem necessary in renewing such policies and
making appropriations therefor.
ELECTRIC LIGHTS.
For a number of years the people of the town, in general terms,
have desired the introduction of electricity for the purpose of
lighting, both for commercial and public uses. It has several
times been made the subject of town action. Committees have
been appointed, and the report inexpedient, or delay for improve-
ments, operated to hold in abeyance for a time, a matter which
apparently held the attention of the people. So long as the de-
sire was general, and no one appeared to actively strive for in-
dividual or special rights of control or direction, just so long dis-
passionate and conservative discussion prevailed ; a feeling also
very strongly prevailed in the later stages, that with the great and
rapid improvements made in that line, hasty, or even carefully
considered action, would not operate to the advantage of the town.
107
Finally, as will be seen by the report of the Selectmen for 1889
and L890, the matter assumed definite shape by the application of
era! companies to the Selectmen for authority to engage in such
lighting) and to erect poles and string wires for that purpose.
Hearings were granted the various companies by the State Board
of I Commissioners and the Selectmen, but no definite action
was taken until Jan. 30, L890, when a conditional right was
granted the People's Company to engage in such business, and final
action thereon deferred for one week ; at the next meeting of the
Board one of the members \v:is absent sick, and it was considered
unwise to take action upon so important a matter by the remain-
ing members in his absence, and before final action could be had
by the full Board, an injunction, restraining the Board from
further action thereon, was served on each member. Upon the
refusal of the Selectmen to grant the right to the Citizens' Gas
Company to do electric light business, that company appealed to
the State Hoard of Gas Commissioners, which left no opportunity
for further action by the Selectmen. In the meantime no de-
termination in definite form could be reached with either of the
electric light companies to assume the responsibility of contest-
ing the rights of parties in Court, and the Selectmen declined to
Mime the responsibility of contesting for such rights for a
private corporation at the expense of the public. On the decision
of the Board of Gas Commissioners being made public, granting
the right to the Citizens' Gas Company to engage in such business,
the Selectmen deemed it best to acquiesce in such decision. The
matter has now been placed in the hands of a competent and pains-
taking committee, authorized to investigate and report to the
town their conclusions.
POLICE.
Consequent upon the action of the Board of Selectmen twro years
ago, the present system of police supervision was established and
the wisdom of such action has been fully demonstrated by in-
creased efficiency and a more general attention to the needs and
demands of the public in matters pertaining to police work. The
enforcement of the laws relating to the sale of intoxicating liquor
has resulted in closing up all known places of such traffic, while
the many calls for police duty have been intelligently and
108
efficiently performed. The Court business is but a small fraction
of police duty ; careful investigation and action where the rights
of the community are concerned, make or unmake the character
of police efficiency ; the'se duties are numerous and oftentimes ex-
acting, and the present system meets the just and reasonable ex-
pectations of the Selectmen, and, we believe, the cordial approval
of all law-abiding citizens ; the amount appropriated last year for
this service is insufficient for the payment of the officer and the
ordinary expenses incident to the office, and we recommend a
liberal and reasonable increase.

OVERSEERS' REPORT.

giving of town aid to the poor and the management of the
Town Farm is not needed, as the figures which have been care-
fully made up and furnished the Auditors will answer all in-
quiries in general and in detail. But there are some matters
which deserve especial mention. The town voted an increased
appropriation of $500 for the use of this Board the past year.
Bills of the previous year for more than this amount have been
paid, and practically all bills up to the close of this year are paid,
while we have kept within the limits of our appropriation. We
have been a Me to close up the accounts of the year in this satis-
factory manner, largely by reason of the vote of the town to pur-
chase at wholesale prices and deliver from the Almshouse all
goods for the relief of the outside poor. While this has thrown
an increased burden of work upon this Board and especially upon
the Superintendent at the Almshouse, it has been attended by
the best results, and we heartily recommend the continuance of
the system.
It has given the recipients an increased amount of aid for the
money expended, and has given it to them in staple articles (not
luxuries) of living, which has been no less a benefit to them, and
in both respects is a boon to the taxpayers. These facts, coupled
with our recommendations of an appropriation of $5,000 for the
coming year, sufficiently sum up this matter.
In accordance with our report of its absolute necessity last year,
the town voted to appropriate $500 for the painting and shingling
of the Almshouse buildings. This money has, we believe, been well
expended, we having bought the materials for painting, and con-
tracting for all the work with the lowest bidders. The buildings
110
are now in thorough repair inside and out, and will need no
further expenditure for a term of years. The chimneys were
repaired, a new hard pine floor laid in the kitchen and hot- water
tank and connections put in for the kitchens and bath room.
As will be seen by the inventory the weather conditions for the
first time in some years have allowed the getting out of a quantit}7
of meadow muck, which will reduce considerably the item of
expense for purchasing manure the coming 'year. The usual
amount of meadow land along jSaugus River has been reclaimed,
thus adding to the town farm an increased acreage of good mow-
ing land. The condition of the farm steadily improves under the
present management, and, we think, must be viewed by the citizens
of the town with as much satisfaction as it is by ourselves. We
have engaged Mr. Donald as Superintendent for the coming year.
Respectfully submitted.

The stock on hand in this department was valued Feb. 1, and
found to amount to $65.73, — a shortage of $9.12, a portion of
which has been used in the Almshouse and the remainder is ac-
counted for by the goods delivered being figured on the orders a
little below cost.
The amount ($178.08) of aid furnished by this department
having been included in the preceding statement of ''Outside
Home Relief," amounting to $965.72, it has been deducted from
that total, and the balance, $787.64, is shown as the expense of
that item in- the opening financial statement; and at the same
time in that statement the total purchases for this department
227.47) are included in the item "Expense of Poor at Alms-
125
house." It was necessary to treat the matter in this manner in
order that the statement of "Outside Home Relief" might show
the total amount of aid furnished each person in that class.
The goods furnished by this department comprised the following
twelve staple articles from which applicants for aid could select:
Flour, tea. sugar, beans, pork, fish, potatoes, oatmeal, meal, rice,
peas, soap.

REPORT OF THE SCHOOL COMMITTEE.
The School Committee of the town of Wakefield would respect-
fully present the following report of the history and condition of
the public schools during the year ending Dec. 31, 1890. That
the report may be comprehensive, and at the same time as brief
and convenient as possible, is the aim of the committee.
Three elements always enter into the school problem in any
community : first, pupils ; second, teachers ; third, money.
PUPILS.
The public school system exists for the sake of the benefits that
may be derived from it by the pupils. Unless those benefits are
secured, then the money expended and the efforts of the teaching
force are wasted. The success of the public school depends as
much upon the home as upon the teachers or School Committee.
If the earnest and honest efforts of the teachers to sustain the dis-
cipline of their schools and to impart knowledge are not supported
by the home influence, comparatively little good can be accom-
plished. The School Committee desire here to express their
appreciation of the earnest and hearty co-operation of the parents
in securing the excellent results of the school year just closing.
Comparatively few cases of discipline have come from the teachers
to the School Committee, and this is as it should be. Only
extreme cases have been so referred by the teachers. Almost
uniformly the parents have sustained the committee in insisting
that good discipline should be maintained in the schools, that the
interests of the many should not be sacrificed to the disorder of
a few.
The school census shows that there are in the town the follow-
ing children of school age :
Males, ......... 591
Females, ......... 579
-
Total, 1,170

SERIOUS INTERRUPTIONS.
There have been two serious interruptions in the school work
of the year: one, affecting the schools, in the High School build-
up only; and the other, those especially on Academy Hill, and
very largely all the schools of the town. The first cause of inter-
ruption was the delay in putting the new system of heating and
ventilating into the High School. This interrupted the work in
the First Grammar, Advanced Grammar, and High School. We
are glad to report, however, that the work which was interrupted
through this delay, has all been made up ; and the course as laid
down has been completed.
Another cause of interruption was the presence of Scarlet Fever
in our town, which became a serious epidemic. A special com-
mittee from the School Committee was appointed to confer fre-
quently with the Board of Health. The first cases of Scarlet
Fever occurred in June, 1890, and the disease has continued more
or less generally prevalent until the date at which this report
closes. The disease has seemed to go in waves ; that is, there
will be a period of some days in which there are scarcely any
cases, then they will multiply very rapidly for a few days. To
illustrate : one school which had no cases when it closed for the
holiday vacation, at the opening of the next term, out of an
enrollment of forty-seven, had only nine present, thirty being
absent on account of Scarlet Fever and Measles. It seemed best
to close the Centre schools, and they were kept closed for four
weeks during October. This seemed to have no perceptible effect
upon the prevalence of the diseases, and by the advice of the
Board of Health the schools were again opened, and have con-
tinued to the present time. No locality seems to be especially
affected by the disease. In all cases the most rigid care is
necessary in keeping the rules laid down by the Board of Health
to prevent the spread of the disease. This care is not always
exercised, and danger results from the neglect. We are happy
to report that although the cases have been numerous, there have
been but four deaths from the disease. Such an epidemic, of
course, has seriously interfered with the best results of work,
1/52
even when the schools were not closed on account of it. The
usual amount of work, hewever, has been substantially accom-
plished, notwithstanding this interruption, greatly to the credit
•of the faithful teachers.
TRUANCY.
The Committee are happy to report that there have been few
cases of truancy during the year just closing. C. E. Niles, our
Chief of Police, and Rufus Draper were appointed by the Com-
mittee, truant officers, and have been attentive and faithful in
the discharge of their duties. In no case has it been deemed
necessary by the Committee, to enforce the extreme penalty of
the law. A visit from the truant officer, or an admonition from
the School Committee, has generally corrected the tendency to
truancy when it manifested itself in any pupil. There have been
frequent absences from the schools, but these generally resulted
from the illness which has been prevalent, or from fear, on the
part of the parents, lest their children should be exposed to dis-
ease. As is usually true, a considerable number of older pupils
have been absent a part of the year, to perform various kinds of
labor. These pupils have uniformly made application to the
proper authorities and received a legal permit for such absences.
The Committee, however, would urge upon the parents the neces-
sity of keeping their children in school the full year, when by any
means it is possible. Pupils who are removed from the schools,
although for satisfactory reasons, not only suffer serious interrup-
tion in the course of study, but lose heart in their work and are
much less effective in the fragment of the year during which they
attend school.
HIGH SCHOOL.
The course of study in the High School has been somewhat
re-adjusted, and been made rather more comprehensive. Every
year brings to this school an increasing number of those who are
preparing for college. This fact necessitates an increase of expen-
diture, as a larger force of teachers is demanded. The classes,
being smaller, are more numerous. Those who complete the full
classical course in our High School are fitted for entrance exami-
nations in our leading colleges.

The thought comes — we must part ;
And ties, which love has bound so fast,
Be severed in each heart.
Good Bye, Good Bye, O Wakefield High !
Long may your banner wave
O'er teachers kind, we leave behind,
O'er scholars true and brave.

Farewell, farewell, to all a fond farewell I

What, though our paths apart must run ;
Long will our hearts recall
The pleasures we've together shared
Within the school-house wall ;
And, where such joyous days we've spent,
Fond memory oft will dwell.
Willi saddened hearts and dewy eyes
We bid to all, farewell. — Chorus.

CADETS.
The citizens have been justly proud of the fine appearance
made by the High School Cadets. The young men who compose
this company have given much time and study to the Manual of
Arms and the evolutions of the company. The result has been
very satisfactory. This company took the second prize on the
First Annual Field Day, held in Wakefield, May 10, 1890, at
which there were present companies from Gloucester, Lynn,
Woburn, Brookline, Reading, Lowell, Maiden and Medford.
The School Committee appreciating the importance and value of
this branch of training, took action this year by which the Cadets
are brought more immediately into the line of school work. Pro-
motions hereafter are to be based not simply upon military fitness,
156
but upon honesty and faithfulness in school work. The company
is at liberty to elect its officers, but those elections must have the
approval of the principal, and then the election is sanctioned by
the School Committee. This improved method has been heartily
endorsed by the Cadets and has proved very satisfactory.
A drill-master has been employed this year and the Cadets
have spent considerable time in the evening in the study of mili-
tary tactics. We are happy to commend the spirit which has
prevailed among them this year, as well as the excellent results
of their work.
FLAGS.
Through the generous kindness of various citizens, the United
States flags have been placed over all the schools in town this
year. The committee would publicly in this report express their
thanks to the large-hearted citizens who have contributed these
flags. The stars and stripes floating over every school are an
object-lesson in patriotism, and must stir the hearts of the pupils
who are to be our future citizens with enthusiasm for their
country. The public school should teach patriotism if it fails in
every other line. These beautiful flags are text-books in loyalty
to country, written in red, white and blue.
TEACHERS.
Frequent changes in the teaching force in any school are dis-
astrous to the best work. It has been the effort of the School
Committee to retain the successful teachers as far as possible.
There have been, however, the following changes in the teaching
foice : Miss Grace J. Barker resigned her position as assistant in
the High School at the close of the Summer term. Miss Helen
Folsom, who came well recommended, was appointed to this
position and began teaching at the opening of the Fall term and
has done excellent work. Miss H. J. Williams resigned the
position of first assistant in the High School in the middle of
the Fall term. The Committee were unable at once to fill this
place satisfactorily. Miss Martha Sprague was appointed tem-
porarily, and her services were very acceptable. On account of
the interruption at the beginning of the term, it was found necces-
sary to continue her services for the remainder of the year.
157
Miss Alice M. Merrill, a teacher of large experience, who held
a position of responsibility in the public schools of a neighboring
town, was finally secured and appointed to fill permanently the
position of first assistant. The appointment has been thorough-
ly satisfactory.
The Centre Second Primary suffered the loss of teacher and
assistant teacher, both of whom resigned. The Committee were
especally fortunate in securing Miss Minnie Emerson, whose record
as a former teacher in our public schools had been such as to in-
sure her large success in this important position of teacher in the
Second Primary. Miss Hattie A. Currier, wTho had filled the
position of assistant in the West Ward School, was transferred
to the position of assistant in the Centre Second Primary.
Miss Kernan, who graduated in the last class from the High
School, was appointed as Assistant in the Hamilton Primary
School. Miss Edith R. Marshall was appointed to the place made
vacant by the transfer of Miss Currier.
It does not seem out of place here to commend the thorough
and conscientious work, which has been performed by our faithful
teachers in our public schools during the past year. The em-
barrassments and annoyances which teachers endure, none know
except those who have been teachers themselves. The work has
been especially perplexing this year, on account of the frequent
absences and the excitement in the public mind, which affected
the pupils, largely occasioned by the prevalence of sickness in
our community. The school year has been very successful in the
face of these serious interruptions, and the credit is due to the
conscientious work of these faithful teachers.
MONEY.
The general fund voted by the town for the support of schools
for the year just closing was $17,800. The expenditures have
been kept entirely within the appropriation. The salary of an
additional teacher for the High School had to be provided for,
beginning with the latter part of September. Miss H. S. Williams,
the first assistant in the High School, resigned unexpectedly to
the Committee, and the vacancy was filled by the appointment of
a temporary teacher, until the Committee could secure one
thoroughly capable of filling this important place.
158
The new system of heating aud ventilating the High School
was not completed until the 29th of September. This delay
interrupted the school for about four weeks, and necessarily
increased the amount of work to be done in the High School
during the remainder of the sch ool year. It was found necessary,
on this account, to continue the temporary teacher during the
year, a permanent teacher having been appointed as first assistant.
The account stands at this date, Dec. 31st, 1890, as follows:

CARE OF AND IMPROVEMENTS IN BUILDINGS.
The school-house at Greenwood has been thoroughly repainted
outside, the desks varnished, and the inside generally repaired,
and the North Ward school building has been painted inside and
the walls and ceilings tinted. The buildings on Academy Hill
have received only attention enough to render them fit to be used.
Unnecessary expense has not been incurred, as it has been the
hope of the Committee that the town would see its way to erect a
suitable school-house on this beautiful site. The Committee
painfully felt the need of it when they found it necessary to
divide the Second Primary, permitting one-half the pupils to
159
attend one session, and the other half the other session. The
enrollment of the school was eighty-six, and the seating capacity
seventy ; and not more than fifty pupils should ever be permitted
to occupy any room. Slight expense has been necessary, as the
financial report will show, to renew the stoves and keep the school
in running order.
Somewhat extensive improvements have been made in the High
School building.
Although these improvements were not committed to the School
Committee as such, but to a special committee appointed by the
town, it is proper that reference should be made to them here.
At a town meeting held August 4th, the amount of $4,547.00
was appropriated to meet the expense of putting into the High
School the Fuller and Warren system of heating and ventilation.
This sum was entirely sufficient to meet the expense of this change.
Certain improvements were made, however, at the same time,
which were necessary, and involved some expense beyond that
provided for by this special appropriation.
RECOMMENDATIONS; A NEW BUILDING.
First. The Committee would respectfully but earnestly urge
the adoption of some plan by which the capacity of our schools
may be enlarged. Any one who will take the pains to analyze
the statistical tables will see that in many of the lower grades the
seating capacity is not sufficient to accommodate the enrollment of
the schools. A new building is imperatively needed. Nearly
ninety pupils were enrolled in the Second Primary School, the
seating capacity of which is only seventy. The teacher of this
grade reports that there doubtless would have been one hundred
present at the beginning of the winter term, had it not been for
sickness among the children. It goes without saying, that the
best work cannot be done under these conditions. The Committee
is very hopeful that before the close of the present school year
some substantial steps will have been taken toward the better
accommodation of our school children.
160
Second.
SUPERINTENDENT.
Another recommendation which the Committee would urge
upon the citizens is the employment of a Superintendent of
Public Schools as soon as possible. In the admirable report
presented in 1885, the Committee say: "It must be manifest to
every citizen that the Committee cannot, in the very nature of
things, give to the schools that care and constant supervision
which the magnitude of the interests demands." Men who are
extremely busy with their regular business, are generally the men
elected upon the School Committee, and they are probably the
men who are most useful on that Committee. In the very nature
of the case, it is impossible for them to give enough time to the
schools to superintend them thoroughly. As a result, there is
less unity, thoroughness, and effectiveness in the work. It is the
opinon of the present School Committee, that by certain re-adjus-
ments of the teaching force, a Superintendent's salary could be
mostly provided for, without increasing the appropriation. They
earnestly recommend such an appointment, and in doing so are
only reiterating the opinion of the able Committees that have
gone before them, as the above quotation shows.
Third.
INDUSTRIAL TRAINING.
The Committee would modestly and tentatively suggest the
introduction of some simple forms of industrial training into our
schools. A considerable number of our public schools are intro-
ducing this department of training. This report is not the place
for argument, nor is argument necessary, for every intelligent
citizen will at once see the value of such a course of training. The
object of our public school system is to train citizens for intelli-
gent citizenship ; men and women for their life work. To train
the hand is as essential as to develope the mind. That this
might be accomplished, a school of carpentering could be intro-
duced with comparatively little expense. This would also be a
step in preparation for the Institute of Technology to those who
are fitting for that institution. The hand on the dial points in
the direction of such training, and it would be greatly to the
credit of our beautiful village to be in the van of those who move
161
along the lines of large and complete development of progressive
school work.
With acknowledgement of the hearty support given to the public
schools during this year by the citizens of the town, this report,
with the statistical table, is respectfully submitted by,
CHAS. J. RYDER, Chairman,

AUDITORS' FINAL STATEMENT.
From March 6, 1890, to Feb. 5, 1891, the Selectmen have
drawn 1,071 orders on the Treasurer representing $66,825.51,
and a larger volume of business than in any previous year. We
have examined the vouchers for these payments, and our report
upon them will be found on pages 111 to 149, arranged in the
departments to which they belong.
Our final balance sheet (page 149) shows a total expenditure of
$74,814.87, which includes $7,989.36 disbursed directly by the
Treasurer for town debt and interest, and Library and Reading
Room payments. We have verified the receipts of such depart-
ments as pay money to the Treasurer; we have examined the books
of the Collector of Taxes and of T. J. Skinner, treasurer of the
Library and Reading Room, and find them correct (see pages 88,
S9 and 102).
We have also examined the accounts of .Mr. Skinner as Town
Treasurer, and find them correct as exhibited on pages 86 and 87,
with the proper vouchers for nil receipts and payments, and that
he has a cash balance of $2,238.20 on deposit in the National Bank
of South Reading. We also certify that lie has the securities and
deposits representing the C. Sweet ser Lecture Fund and Burial
Lot Fund and the Library Funds (see pages 90, 91 and 92).
An examination of our final balance sheet on page 149 shows
overdrafts in different appropriations, amounting to 81,760.37.
It seems proper to call the attention of the town to this matter as
such overdrafts are prohibited by vote of the town, the only ex-
ception (Poor Department) having been put on the same footing
as the other departments in 1*7*.

REPORT
OF THE
Committee Chosen at a Town Meeting
HOI, DM N JANUARY 6, 1S9I , TO TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION
THE SUBJECT OF A CONTRACT
WITH THE
CITIZENS' GASLIGHT COMPANY
TO FURNISH
I.LECTRIC LIGHTS FOR THE STREETS OF THE TOWN,
AND ALSO
IN REGARD TO THE TOWN'S ESTABLISHING AN ELECTRIC-
LIGHT PLANT FOR LIGHTING THE STREETS
AND PUBLIC BUILDINGS.
BOSTON :
Press of Rockwell and Churchill
1891.
REPORT.
In the warrant for the town meeting, holclcn on the 6th
day of January, AD. 1891, there were two articles, of which
the follow in- i> a copy : —
" ARTIC1 i. I\'. 1 see if the town will contract with the
tizens' Gaslight Company for lighting its streets with electric
lights ami appropriate money therefor, or what they will do
about it.
" ARTICLE VIII. To sec what action the town will take in
A\\\ to establishing an electric-light plant for lighting its
str< md public buildings."
Acting upon the above articles, the undersigned were ap-
pointed a committee to take the subject-matter of said articles
into consideration and report at the next Annual Town Meet-
in By a subsequent vote the committee was instructed to
report in print before the Annual Meeting.
Having attended to the duty assigned us as best we could
ring the limited time at our disposal, we beg to pre-
sent the result of our investigations to the town. To enable
the town to act with greater intelligence, we give a brief
'sume of the electric-light controversy in this town.
At the Annual Meeting in 1887 a committee of five was
appointed to investigate the subject of electric lights for
the town. That committee, at the November meeting of the
same year, made an exhaustive and instructive report, the
gist of which was, that electric light would cost nearly double
the amount of gaslight, and that it was advisable to wait for
the further development of the various systems of electric
lighting before taking action. Near the beginning of the
municipal year of 1888 and '89 three electric-light companies
made application to the Selectmen for the right to erect
poles in the streets of the town for the purpose of supplying
the town and its inhabitants with electric lights. One, the
Wakefield Electric Light and Power Co., was composed en-
tirely of citizens of our own town, and the other two of persons
living beyond its limits. No franchise was granted to either
of said companies by the Board of Selectmen for that year,
and the two last named abandoned their applications.
Early in the summer of 1889 the People's Electric Light
and Power Company made a similar application to the Board
of Selectmen of that year, and the Wakefield Electric Light
and Power Company renewed its application. A public
hearing was given both these companies.
Up to October, 1889, the Citizens' Gaslight Company of
Reading, South Reading, and Stoneham, a corporation which
for many years had been furnishing these towns with gas, had
taken no action to avail itself of the provisions of the law of
1887 authorizing gas companies to furnish electric light. In
October, 1889, in accordance with the provisions of Chapter
385 of the Laws of 1887, the Gas Company voted to apply to
the Gas Commissioners of the Commonwealth for authority
to furnish electric light in the towns of Wakefield, Reading,
and Stoneham ; and in accordance with that vote, made ap-
plication to said Commissioners ; upon which application
notice was ordered and a hearing had at the Town Hall in
Wakefield. The law vests in the Gas Commissioners of the
Commonwealth the right to grant gas companies power to
furnish electric light, and among other sections of Chapter
385 of the Laws of 1887 are the two following, which are
particularly applicable, and we quote the same: —
"SECTION 2. Said board shall at the time of granting said
authority prescribe the time, not exceeding six months, within
which said company shall erect and equip such a plant for
generating electricity for light and power as may be required
in the specified territory, and designate the minimum ca-
pacity of such plant; and if said company shall neglect to
erect and complete said plant within the time prescribed,
5
said authoiity shall thereupon become void, and no such
authority shall be again granted to said company within two
years thereafter ; provided, however, that said board may, for
cause shown, extend the time first prescribed for erecting and
equipping said plant not more than three months from the
expiration of the time first prescribed.
" SECT. 3. At the expiration of the time and extension
thereof, if any, given under the preceding section, said board
shall, after such examination as they shall deem proper,
make, in a book kept by them for that purpose, a record as
to whether their orders with reference to the erection and
completion of said plant have been complied with. Said
record shall be conclusive evidence of the truth of the mat-
ters stated therein."
On the 1 6th day of December, 1889, said Commissioners
passed the following order: —
" Ordered, That said company is hereby authorized to en-
gage in said business in the towns of Reading and Wake-
field, and that said company within six months from this date
procure a plant erected and equipped for generating elec-
tricity for light and power with a minimum capacity of sixty
horse-power, and dynamo capacity sufficient to convert the
same into light and to operate motors."
On the 13th day of June, 1890, said Commissioners passed
the following order: —
" Ordered, That the time prescribed in the order of the
13th day of December last, within which the company shall
procure an electric-light plant, be extended three months
from the expiration of the time heretofore fixed."
In accordance with the law and the orders of the Gas Com-
missioners, it devolved upon the gas company to secure the
consent of the Selectmen to erect poles and string wires in
the streets of the town, and to erect and complete said plant,
on or before the 16th day of September, A.D. 1890; and
the law provides that in case of neglect to do this its
authority will become void, and no further authority can be
granted to it within two years thereafter.
6
After the receipt of this grant of power from the Gas Com-
missioners of the Commonwealth, the Gas Company made
application to the Selectmen of the town for authority to set
poles and string wires in the highways of the town for the
purpose of distributing electricity for light and power.
A public hearing was notified upon this petition, and had at
the Town Hall. This placed the three companies upon equal
legal footing. Their legal status before the Selectmen was
exactly the same, and the law imposed upon the Selectmen,
and on them only, the duty of determining which one, if
cither, of said companies should be granted the authority
prayed for.
Pending a decision by the Selectmen between these three
companies, a town meeting was called, the warrant for which
contained the following article : —
"Article V. Whether they will vote to instruct the
Selectmen to grant to the Citizens' Gaslight Company of
Reading, South Reading, and Stoncham, the privilege of erect-
ing poles and wires in the streets and highways of the town to
be used in carrying on the business of furnishing electricity
for light and power, or what they will do in the premises."
Under said article the following vote was passed almost
unanimously: —
" Voted, To instruct the Selectmen not to grant this privi-
lege to the Citizens' Gaslight Company."
During the pendency of these various applications each of
the three companies made propositions to the Selectmen as
follows : —
PROPOSITION OF THE PEOPLE'S ELECTRIC
LIGHT AND POWER COMPANY.
" WrAKEFIELD, MASS., Oct. I 7, I 889.
" To the Honorable Board of Selectmen of the Town of Wake-
field : —
" At a meeting of the Directors of the People's Electric
Light and Power Co., held on Monday evening, Oct. 14,
1889, it was voted to submit the following statement in
answer to the request of the Board of Selectmen of the town
of Wakefield, dated Oct. II, 1889.
" We propose to put in a system of lighting both by the
arc and incandescent method. All dynamos, engines, station
apparatus, etc., we will guarantee shall be purchased from
concerns of unquestioned reliability, and shall be first-class
in every respect. The construction of the lines necessary
shall be done by some reliable construction company under
the supervision of the chairman of the Board of Selectmen,
if your Honorable Board shall so decide.
" It is proposed to locate the plant for the present at the
pumping-station of the Wakefield Water Company, if a con-
tract satisfactory to our company can be made ; if not, we
shall hire or erect suitable buildings elsewhere.
11 We will agree to furnish the town with ten arc lights,
to be located by the Board of Selectmen at points near the
centre of the town, for a period of three months free of ex-
pense on the completion of the plant, lights to be lit accord-
ing to the moon schedule.
" We will guarantee that our rates to the town for lighting
the streets and public buildings, and to the inhabitants of the
town for commercial lighting, shall be as low as the rates
anywhere, where the circumstances are similar to those in
our town.
" And we will agree to begin the erection of our plant not
later than thirty days from the official notification of the
granting of our petition by your Honorable Board, and will
complete it at the earliest possible moment.
" People's Electric Light and Power Co.,
"By EDWIN C. MILLER,
" President!'

PROPOSITION OF THE WAKEFIELD ELECTRIC
LIGHT & POWER COMPANY.
" To the Honorable the Selectmen of the Town of Wakefield: —
" The Wakefield Electric Light & Power Company hereby
propose that, if the privilege of erecting poles and wires in
said town is granted to it, it will enter into an agreement
with the town that the system to be employed shall be satis-
factory to your Board ; that one of your number shall be
placed on the Board of Directors of the company to supervise
the entire work of the company ; that all bills for materials
purchased and work done shall be audited by your Board or
its representative ; that said representation on said Board of
Directors shall continue for one year; that at any time within
one year the town, if it so desires, may purchase the entire
property of the company by paying to it the actual cost
thereof and six per cent, interest.
"Wakefield Electric Light & Power Company,
"By GEO. H. TOWLE,
" Its Attorney:'
The Gas Company did not submit any written proposition,
but did orally offer to comply with all the conditions which
any other company proposed, and furnish light for ten per
cent, less than any other company then in existence would or
could do.
The Selectmen considered their duty, at this time, to regard
that vote of the town as binding upon them, whether it
accorded with their own views or not.
Shortly after the town passed the above vote, an order
from the Superior Court of Middlesex County was served
upon the Selectmen to show cause why they should not be
enjoined from granting the People's Electric Light & Power
Company the franchise prayed for by them. This was a prac-
tical injunction, and is regarded by the courts of the Com-
monwealth as having the same effect, practically, as a
9
peremptory order. Of course this prevented the Selectmen
from granting any franchise to the People's Company. On
the first day of March, 1890, the Selectmen formally refused
to grant the franchise prayed for by the Gas Company and
the Wakefield Electric Light & Power Company. From this
refusal both said companies appealed to the State Board of
Gas and Electric Light Commissioners, as provided by law
they might do. The Wakefield Company did not prosecute
its appeal. The Gas Company did, and a hearing on that
appeal was held at the Gas Commissioners' office ; and on the
3d day of July, 1890, said Commissioners rendered their
decision and reversed the action of the Selectmen, and granted
to the company the right to erect poles and maintain wires
m the streets of Wakefield for the purpose of furnishing
electric light to the town and its inhabitants.
On the same day the Gas Company, acting under Section
4 of Chapter 385 of the Laws of 1887, filed the following
petition : —
11 To the Selectmen of the Town of Wakefield: —
" Respectfully represents the Citizens' Gaslight Company of
Reading, South Reading, and Stoneham, that it is duly
authorized and empowered to engage in the business of fur-
nishing electricity for light and power in the town of Wake-
field, and to erect poles and string wires in the streets and
highways of said town.
" It therefore prays that your Board will designate such
streets and highways, and such points and places in said streets
and highways, for the erection of poles and stringing of wires
as may be necessary for the purpose of conducting said busi-
ness.
" Citizens' Gaslight Company of Reading,
South Reading, and Stoneham.
" By S. K. HAMILTON,
"Its Attorney.
"July 3d, A.D. 1890."
10
As understood by us, this petition, taken in connection
with the law under which it was drafted, asked the Selectmen
to designate the particular places in the streets in the town at
which poles should be erected, the company then having had
the right to erect them in the streets granted to it by the Gas
and Electric Light Commissioners.
This petition was filed on the day of its date, and no action
has ever been taken upon it.
About the 7th day of August, 1890, the holders of a
majority of stock of the Gas Company made a bargain to sell
their stock, which bargain was subsequently carried out, and
the management of the Gas Company passed into other
hands. Under this new management Charles F. Woodward,
of this town, was made president, and T. H. Buck, of the
Woburn Electric Light Co., treasurer.
On the evening of the same 7th day of August, as the
Selectmen of the town were about closing their public session
v at a regular meeting of the Board, Mr. Woodward called upon
the Selectmen, and we are informed and believe that he made
an oral application for some kind of a franchise to be granted
to the Gas Company ; and on that evening, without notice
and without hearing, as the law plainly requires, the Select-
men passed the following vote : —
" Voted, That the Citizens' Gaslight Company of Reading,
South Reading, and Stoneham be and is hereby authorized
and empowered to engage in the business of furnishing elec-
tricity for light and power in the town of Wakefield, and to
erect poles and string wires in the streets and highways of
said town, the location of said poles to be hereafter designated
and subject to such restrictions as to quality and style as may
be imposed by the Selectmen of said town of Wakefield, and
subject also to such other provisions and conditions as may
be required by said Board of Selectmen."
. This action was not made public either by the Gas Com-
pany or the Selectmen for nearly two weeks. Whether this
was from design or accident it is not our province to de-
termine.
11
We have caused the records of the Selectmen to be ex-
amined, and we fail to find any. vote designating the location
of poles, or imposing any restrictions whatsoever upon the
Gas Company. Immediately after the change in the manage-
ment of the Gas Company, it proceeded to erect an addition
to the gas-house, and to erect a plant to furnish electric
lights to the town of Wakefield ; and on the 16th day
of September, the time when its franchise would expire if it
neglected to erect and complete the plant designated in the
order of the Gas Commissioners, it had a building partially
completed, an engine, and som£ electrical machinery therein,
and some poles erected in the streets of the town, and did on
the evening of that day light, as we are informed, six street-
lights. Since that time the work of erecting poles and
stringing wires has been pushed in a way and manner as well
known to other citizens of the town as to the committee, and
we are informed that the company has twenty-eight arc lights
on the streets and a number of incandescent lights.
This we believe is a plain and truthful summary of this
controversy up to the time of our appointment.
Since our appointment the Supreme Judicial Court of this
Commonwealth has decided that towns cannot erect and
maintain plants for generating electricity to be used in light-
ing their own streets and public buildings, without further
legislative authority. Notwithstanding this, we have not felt
at liberty to disregard the instructions of the town to us, in
view of the facts that the Legislature is now in session, and
that the matter of authorizing towns to furnish their own
lights is being considered by that body, and also that there
is an article in the warrant for our annual town meeting to
see if the town will petition the Legislature to authorize it to
engage in the business of electric lighting by a special act.
In approaching the consideration of the subject-matter re-
ferred to us for investigation and report, we have done so
with an eye single to the welfare of the town, and have
sought to present unvarnished facts, and our conclusions
12
based upon those facts, and we leave the town to adopt or
reject them, as it may deem wise. At the outset, upon some
of the questions involved in the matter referred to us the
committee held decidedly divergent views, which, perhaps,
have not all been harmonized ; but our investigation has
made them a unit upon the essentials, and this report is a
unanimous one.
In performing our work we have held numerous meetings, —
two with the representatives of the Gas Company, — obtained
the opinions of practical and expert electrical engineers, visited
the works of the Gas Company and the electric-light works in
the town of Danvers, owned and operated by that town.
Immediately upon the organization of the committee,
January 19, we applied to the Gas Company for its lowest
proposition, in writing, for supplying the town with electric
lights, and asking it to submit the same at our meeting
the 2 1 st of January. The company was unable to comply
with this request on account of the short notice. The
committee then invited it to comply with that request at
" the earliest possible date." On the evening of February
14th the president of the company, accompanied by one of
the directors and its electrician, submitted an oral propo-
sition, which was reduced to writing and submitted to us on
February, 17th as follows: —
"The Citizens' Gaslight Company makes the following
proposition, namely: Arc lights, 1,200 candle-power, 20
nights each month from dusk till midnight, for $80 per year.
Incandescent lights, 25 candle-power, for same time as the
arcs, $18.00 per year. Or the company will agree to accept
such prices as may be decided by a board of disinterested per-
sons possessing a practical knowledge of electric lighting, — the
town to choose one, the company one, and those two a third.
" Citizens' Gaslight Company,
" By CHARLES F. WOODWARD, President.
" P.S. — The price of 16 candle-power incandescent lights in
buildings is one cent an hour."
13
It will be seen that this is the same proposition submitted
to the town on the 6th of January-, with the addition of the
offer for arbitration. We were unable to get any lower offer
or further concession from the company.
In compliance with what we understood to be the wish of
the town, we sought to obtain a statement of the financial
condition of the company, also the names of the board of
directors, and some of the largest stockholders. This informa-
tion was refused, on the ground that the inquiries related to
matters with which the town had no concern. It appeared,
incidentally, in our interviews, that a very large part of the
stock of the company was owned by non-residents of the
town ; that Messrs. Charles F. Woodward, Ezra M. South-
worth, R. P. Buzzell, and T. H. Buck are among the di-
rectors; that Mr. Woodward is president, and Mr. Buck
treasurer, of the company; and that the plant is mortgaged
for seventy thousand dollars. This was all the information
upon these points which we could obtain from the representa-
tives of the company who met with us.
Failing to ascertain the facts required from the company,
we applied at the office of the Secretary of the Commonwealth
for an inspection of the annual statement of the company,
which should have been filed last November, according to
law, and which would give the names of the stockholders and
the amount of stock held by each, together with the names of
the officers of the company, but were there informed that the
company had failed to comply with the provisions of law.
There being no other sources of information open to us, we
are unable to give the town any further information upon
these points.
The company having refused to furnish your committee or
the town any information whatever upon its financial stand-
ing, except as above stated, we sought such information as
we could obtain from other sources.
We find that the authorized capital stock of the company
14
is one hundred thousand dollars ; that the par value of the
stock is one hundred dollars per share; that nine hundred
and fifty-three (953) shares of this stock have been issued,
amounting to ninety-five thousand three hundred dollars
($95,300) ; that the gas-works were constructed in 1859 and
i860; that the contractor was paid for his work in money
and stock of the company in about equal proportions.
The Gas Commissioners of the Commonwealth, in their re-
port for the year 1889, made to the Legislature of 1890, esti-
mated the value of the plant at thirty-five thousand dollars
($35,000), and that was the value placed upon it by some of
its most judicious stockholders; and we are informed that a
large portion of the stock changed hands in 1889 f°r less than
that figure. At this time the company had no debts, and
practically no surplus, so that thirty-five dollars ($35.00)
per share represented the true value of the stock based upon
the value of the property. Since that time it has added to its
plant the brick gas-holder and its electric-light plant.
We have no means of knowing the cost of these additions,
but it is apparent that the company had to incur an indebt-
edness to make them.
In view of the fact that the company refused to furnish any
information upon its financial standing, it is certainly fair to
all to publish the statement circulated by the Suffolk Trust
Co. of Boston, which is trustee for the holders of the bonds
which the above-named mortgage was made to secure. It
bears no signature, but presumably it is issued with the ap-
proval of the Gas Company, as it is in its interest and issued
by the trustee chosen by itself. It is as follows : —
" We offer, subject to previous sale, $70,000 of 6 per cent.

pany of Wakefield, Reading, and Stoneham. Denomination,

We offer no comment upon this statement.
An inspection of the company's plant shows that it has a
brick building used for electric-light purposes, in which are
placed two 125 horse-power boilers and one 125 horse-
power engine, and electrical machinery of the Thomson-
Houston manufacture for generating electricity, all of which,
so far as we are able to judge, is of a first-class character and
in first-class condition. The poles and wires in the town are
as open to the inspection of all the citizens as to ourselves,
but we are advised that the same are of excellent quality.
Five of your committee visited and examined in person
16
the electric-light plant erected and operated by the town of
Danvers for more than two years. Their plant consists of
the following: Building, dynamo-room, 45 X 35- This is
a frame building, sheathed inside, hard- pine floor, and inside
blinds; boiler-room is of brick with cement floor, 45 X 23 ;
one 80 horse-power steel dome boiler; one 80 horse-power
feed water-heater; one injector; one Spencer damper regu-
lator ; one 60-ft. iron smoke-stack ; one steam-whistle ; one
60 horse-power Ball engine ; two 43-light dynamos ; two
ammeters; two current governors; one switch- board ; one
magneto ; two lightning-arresters ; seventy-five double arc
lamps of 1,200 candle-power; twenty-one miles of wire;
with line and lamp-poles. This plant was erected by the
Brush Electric Company, of Cleveland, Ohio, and is what is
called the " Brush system." It affords a light equal in brill-
iance and steadiness with any we have observed elsewhere
of the same capacity, and we are informed by the officials
and some of the leading citizens of the town that it is entirely
satisfactory to the people. We found no one who expressed
an opposite opinion. We copy the following letter from the
superintendent of the works, indorsed by the Selectmen, as to
the original cost of the plant and of operating the same : —
".Danvers, Feb. 19, 1891.
"James H. Carter, Esq., Chairman of Electric Light Com-
mittee, Wakefield, Mass. : —
"Dear Sir, — In reply to your favor of the 16th inst. I
have to say that I was Chairman of the Committee of our
town having charge of the construction of the electric-light
plant now in operation here. This was put in during the
year of 1888, and the lamps were lighted January 2, 1889,
and have been in constant use to the present time.
" WTe originally located and put in seventy-three (73)
Brush arc lamps. On May 1, 1 89 1, added two, and from
that date we have been using seventy-five (75). We have
run our lights on the moon schedule until midnight. From
17
Jan. 2, 1889, to Feb. 1, 1890 (the end of our fiscal year),
our lamps were lighted 267 nights and 1,354 hours. From
Feb. 1, 1890, to Feb. 1, 1891, our lamps were lighted and used
255 nights and twelve hundred and thirty-six (1,236) hours.
" The total cost of erecting, completing, and equipping our
electric-light plant as it now stands, including everything,
except land, was fifteen thousand five hundred and seventy-
nine dollars T-|^ ($15,579.09).
" The total cost of operating seventy-three (73) electric
lights in our town from Jan. 2, 1889, to Feb. 2, 1890,
thirteen months, was $3,928.47. Cost for same period,
each arc light, $5 3.8 if £.
" The entire cost of our lights from Feb. 1, 1890, to Feb.
1, 1891, 12 months, was $3,419.79. Cost for same period,
each arc light, $45.59.
" In the above is included every actual expense chargeable
to the construction of the electric-light plant, maintenance
and operation of same, except value of land and interest on
same, and whatever may be charged to depreciation of the
plant, which is entirely problematical, variously estimated from
five to ten per cent. (5 to 10 % ) on the original cost.
" We have no other street lights paid for by the town, and
our lights are satisfactory to our people. I may add that I
have been superintendent of the work since the committee
were discharged.
" Very respectfully,
"T. J. LYNCH."

The town of Danvers has about 50 miles of streets ; sub-
stantially the same as Wakefield. It has an area of 7,420
acres; while Wakefield has an area of 3,745 acres.
The population of Danvers is centred in villages more
than in Wakefield, and they are at greater distances apart;
consequently there are more in number and longer stretches
of wire where no lights are needed.
Upon the best calculation we can make, it will take about
seventy-five (75) arc lights, of 1,200 candle-power each, to
illuminate the town in a satisfactory manner. We are advised
that the Danvers plant can be duplicated at about the same
price, and we see no reason why it cannot be operated as
cheaply in Wakefield as in Danvers, except a slight increase
in the freight on coal.
Comparison of Cost.

If, for the purpose of making an approximate
estimate of the cost of a plant for this town,
we add the sum of $1,000 for land not in-
cluded in the Danvers plant, we shall have
for the first cost of an electric-light plant
sufficient to light our town satisfactorily the
sum of $16,579 09
20
Basing our computation upon the experience
of Danvers and their official figures, it would
cost the town of Wakefield for 75 arc lights,
to be lighted 240 nights per year, from dusk
until midnight ...... $3,459 79
Upon this basis each arc light would cost the
sum of ...... . $43 42
If we add to the cost of operating the Danvers
plant for the last fiscal year interest at 4 per
cent, on the cost of the land, and 10 per
cent, on the gross cost of the plant for an-
nual depreciation in value, — which is the
largest depreciation estimated by any engi-
neer, — we shall have for the cost of oper-
ating our plant for 1 year, 255 nights, the
sum of ...... $5>OI7 5°
For the same, for 1 year of 240 nights . . $4,722 00
The cost of each arc light for 1 year of 240

In the computation made by the Danvers officials for oper-
ating their plant is reckoned the entire cost of repairs made
during the time, and they claim that their plant is in sub-
stantially as good condition as when first erected, actual
wear excepted.
In our computation of the cost of operation we have
included the same sum, and also a sum for depreciation of
value in use, which would allow the whole plant to become
worthless in ten years, — a condition of things which no one
supposes will take place.
REPORT OF CHARLES H. HERRICK,
ELECTRICAL ENGINEER.
To aid us in our investigations we employed Mr. Charles
H. Herrick, Manager of the Wright Electrical Engineering
Company of Boston, to visit the town and make a personal
21
examination of the situation, and to advise and make a re-
port as to the best manner and cost of lighting the town by
electricity.
On account of unexpected delays we did not receive his
report until our report, as we originally drew it, was in the
hands of the printer. We insert it here without further
explanation or comment, from lack of time.
"Boston, Feb. 26, 1891.
" Hon. James H. Carter, Chairman Electrical Committee,
Wakefield, Mass. : —
" Dear Sir, — In accordance with your request, I submit
herewith report of the cost and operating expenses of an
electric-light plant for lighting the streets of your town. I
have made a visit to Wakefield, going over the ground care-
fully, and find that the town can be well lighted with 87
arc lamps of 1,200 nominal candle-power. I make two
estimates, — one for a plant to light the streets alone, and for
a plant to light the streets, stores, hall, churches, schools,
dwellings, etc., as the town may decide to furnish commer-
cial lighting in connection with the street lighting, thereby
reducing the cost of the latter by the income derived from
the former. I have made estimates for a brick building, as
I consider its extra cost over a wooden building money
well expended. The line work will require about 650 poles
and 26 miles of wire. Estimates have been made for chest-
nut poles and a good quality of weather-proof wire, — poles to
be painted two coats of paint to preserve them and render
them less unsightly. The lamps to be suspended over streets,
where necessary, by means of mast-arms, and in other places
to be placed directly on pole. These estimates can be relied
on as correct, and the cost of the plant will not depart mate-
rially from them.

" It must be understood that these results will be only ap-
proximated until 1,300 lamps are installed. A further source
of income to the town would be the letting of power by
means of motors run from the idle arc machines during the
daytime. No certain figures, however, can be made in this
connection at present. An increase of commercial lighting
over the figures given — and this would be probable in the
near future — would decrease the cost of lighting streets, and
if enough commercial lighting could be obtained, the plant
would become self-sustaining!

Present Condition.
If the Gas Company has the right at the present time to
engage in the business of generating electricity for light in
the town of Wakefield (which is questionable), it has the
exclusive right. It has a monopoly. Practically, no other
company can obtain a foothold here. If any board of select-
men should grant the right to any other corporation, the Gas
Company would appeal from that decision to the Gas and
Electric Light Commissioners of the Commonwealth, who
would undoubtedly reverse the decision. The town in its
corporate capacity has no legal right to engage in the busi-
ness of generating electricity for lighting its own streets and
public buildings without a general law or special act granting
it this power.
There is now pending before the Legislature of this Com-
monwealth a proposition to grant this authority to the cities
and towns of the Commonwealth, by a general law. There
26
is an article in the warrant for the Annual Meeting of this
town, " To see if the town will vote to petition the Legislature
for authority to build a gas or electric light plant, or both,
with authority to manufacture light for public use, and also
to sell light for private use, or what they will do about it."
There is a general awakening throughout the Commonwealth
in favor of larger municipal powers and privileges, and it is
especially strong upon allowing municipalities to furnish their
own light.
The House of Representatives will undoubtedly pass a bill
granting this authority, and the Senate will concur unless it
is animated by motives other than those which are for the
public good. One great political party is committed to this
action in the platform of its last convention ; the leading and
most progressive spirits of the other party are committed to
the same course of action.
It is for the interest of this town that such a law should be
enacted, for then competition may enter into the contract.
Recommendations.
In view of the foregoing facts, we recommend that the town
do not enter into a contract with the Citizens' Gaslight Com-
pany to furnish electric light for our streets ; and we further
recommend that the town do not enter into arbitration upon
the terms of such a contract, for we consider that it is wiser
for the town to enter into a contract understanding all its
conditions rather than to do so blindfolded.
The offer of the Gas Company necessarily leaves the choice
of arbitrators to a class of men who are in the interest of
electric-light companies ; and the town might, under such an
arbitration, find itself bound to take electric lights at a cost
greater even than the offer of the Gas Company. In our
opinion, it is perfectly safe to risk the intelligence of the
town to make its own contract. We further recommend that
27
the town take no further action until the Legislature acts upon
the question before it, which must be in a few weeks at the
longest.
All of which is respectfully submitted.

CHARLES F. HARTSHORNE,
Town Clerk.

REPORT OE THE SELECTMEN.
To the Inhabitants and Legal Voters of the Town of Wakefield :
The close of the present municipal year brings with it the
opportunity and the duty of the various Boards of town officers
to return to your hands the charge with which you have invested
them, together with a report of such matters as may be deemed
of importance or interest in the conduct of the business of the
town. Such reports are herewith presented.
VACANCIES.
Shortly after the opening of the current municipal year, several
vacancies from various causes took place in a number of munici-
pal offices, necessitating appointment by the Selectmen.
Preston Sheldon, M. D., of the Board of Trustees of the Town
Library, died, and Rev. Charles J. Ryder was elected by the
Board of Trustees and the Selectmen to fill the vacancy for the
remainder of the year.
AUDITORS.
John S. Eaton and Willis S. Mason, both on account of ill
health, vacated their offices. Mr. Eaton by declining to qualify,
and Mr. Mason by resignation. Mr. William W. Taft and
Melvin W. Boardman were appointed to fill the vacancies. Mr.
Taft was assigned to the responsible duty of examining and
auditing the weekly accounts, and has proved to be a most effi-
cient officer.
ROAD COMMISSIONERS.
Mr. Everett Nichols, of this Board, died soon after the annual
election, and Maj. Winsor M. Ward was appointed to serve for
the remainder of the year.
CONSTABLE.
By reason of the inability of Mr. Charles H. Davis to act, on
account of serious illness, and of the failure of Israel A. Parsons
9
66
and Moses Staples to qualify, it became necessary to appoint a
constable for the service of process, and Mr. Charles E. Niles
was appointed for that service.
FENCE VIEWERS.
This important office has not been filled for the past five years,
except as the several Boards of Selectmen have made appoint-
ments, or have themselves assumed the responsibilities of the
office. This, we believe, is of so much importance we invite the
serious consideration of the public, and urgently request that such
action may be had by the towTn as will insure prompt and effi-
cient adjustment of disputed rights in division lines between occu-
pants and owners of adjoining estates, and settle, without cost to
either party in controversy, the partition lines and maintainance
of division fences. Under the present method, fence viewers are
elected each year, and knowing the difficulties to be met and the
intricacies of the law to be understood and applied in the drawing
of forms of procedure to meet certain requirements and many
uncertain exigencies, refuse to qualify ; and the doubtful alterna-
tive presents itself of action under the law by the Selectmen, or
refusing to petitioners the rights which the law presumes to give
them. In either case manifest injustice may be done, as a clear
analysis of the law and the application of important principles of
the law must necessarily determine the qualifications of those
who are called upon to act, and the refusal to act, however well
intended, may subject the town to serious complications.' For
these and many other reasons involved in this misunderstood law,
we urgently suggest the propriety of selecting at least one lawyer
on the Board, and the appropriation of a reasonable sum for
service.
OTHER OFFICES.
An inspection of the records for the past five years as to the
qualification of other officers, but including Constables, shows that
out of one hundred and eighty-one elected, but seventy- two quali-
fied, leaving as a result of hasty or ill-considered action, one
hundred and nine useless appointments. These include Weighers
of Coal and Merchandise, Measurers of Wood and Bark, Sur-
veyors of Lumber, Field Drivers, Constables and Fence Viewers.
67
CHIEF OF POLICE AND NIGHT WATCH.
Mr. Charles E. Niles, who had merited and received during a
series of years the confidence of the town for the efficient admin-
istration of the Police department, resigned his office as Chief of
Police to take effect Jan. 1, 1892, and Mr. Alvin L. Vannah, one
of the very efficient night officers, was appointed to the vacancy,
and Mr. Edwin F. Poland was appointed to succeed Mr. Vannah
as night officer.
Sweetser Lecture Course.
curator.
Mr. Jacob C. Hartshorne, popular and efficient in the manage-
ment of this special feature of our social entertainment and
instruction, was re- appointed by the Selectmen as trustees of this
Course, to continue in its wise management', and we believe he
has ably met the requirements of such supervision.
THE SWEETSER CHARITY.
In the early part of the year the Selectmen, acting upon infor-
mation contained in former reports, and a desire to carry out to
the full accomplishment the provisions of the will of Cornelius
Sweetser relative to any surplus remaining from the proceeds of
the Sweetseer Lecture Course, issued the following circular letter,
which explains itself, calling for an organization of associated
charities, for the purposes therein specified : —
To the Ladies herein mentioned :
In accordance with the provisions of the will of Cornelius Sweetser,
certain funds now in the hands of the Town Treasurer await the disposi-
tion of the Selectmen, "to be paid to such charitable organization in
said Wakefield as the municipal officers of the town may designate, to be
distributed among the worthy poor of the town."
The Grand Army of the Republic has been designated as such a chari-
table organization, and a part of the funds paid to them.
There remains now in the hands of the Town Treasurer the sum of
$76.33 to be awarded a similar charity.
It is believed that a great amount of good may be accomplished by
such an organization, and that with the above sum as a nucleus, still
larger sums may be added to it by the charitable people of the town,
which, with its guarantee of an intelligent working force and general
scope, would result in a permanent and helpful organized charity.
68
Experience has taught us that women are the greatest sufferers, as
well as the most patient to bear snffering in adversity. We also believe
that woman can best reach the heart that suffers in silence, and for this
reason we invite the following named ladies to meet at the Selectmen's
Room, in Town Hall Building, on Wednesday, May 27, 1892, at 7.30
o'clock p. m., to consider the matter, and to take such action as they
may then determine, with the understanding, that upon the organization
of such charitable assocation, by the election of officers and the adoption
of rules of government, the amount of such surplus is to be awarded to
such charitable association for the uses specified in said will.

Under this call the ladies therein mentioned met and perfected
an organization, as appears from the following letter:
Wakefield, June 11, 1891.
Wm. N. Tyler, Chairman of the Board of Selectmen :
Dear Sir, — In response to the circular sent out by the Selectmen, the
ladies invited met and perfected an organization under the name of
"Sweetser Charity." The officers elected are Mrs. S. K. Hamilton,
President; Mrs. I. Stowell, Vice President; Mrs. W. E. Rogers, Secre-
tary and Treasurer. The Executive Committee is composed of the

INSURANCE.
As stated in the report for 1890-91, the insurance on the Town
Hall building expired during the year, and under the vote of the
Town of April 12, 1886, reinsurance was effected in the sum of
$40,000. Other insurance expiring during the year has been
renewed, including $5,000 upon the High School building, not
mentioned in the last report, which expired Jan. 9, 1892. The
insurance on the two school buildings on Academy Hill expired
in May, and it was deemed advisable to 'continue such insurance
during the uncertain time of occupancy, and the original insur-
ance was continued to Aug. 1, 1892. Upon the suggestion of
the Committee in charge of the erection of the New School build-
ing on Academy Hill, and upon representations that no fund was
available for such insurance, it was deemed prudent to insure to
an amount sufficient to cover the payments made by the town, and
that building is now insured for the sum of $20,000.
Insurance on other town property expires during the current
municipal year as follows : Two old buildings on Academy Hill,
insured respectively for $2,000 and $1,500, expires Aug. 1, 1892.
High School building $5,000, expires Nov. 5, 1892. Montrose
School-house, $1,000, and Greenwood School-house, $1,000, ex-
70
pires Nov. 18, 1892. Woodville School-house and fixtures,
$2,000, expires Jan. 21, 1893. High School building, $5,000,
expires Feb. 9, 1893.
RCLES AND REGULATIONS.
In consequence of numerous complaints made to the Board on
account of the passage of carriages and bicycles on the sidewalks
of the town the following rules and regulations were adopted :
TOWN OF WAKEFIELD
Rules for the Regulation of Carriages and other Vehicles in the
Streets and Public Ways of the Town of Wakefield, Mass., as
Passed by the Board of Selectmen, Sept. 8, 1891.
By authority of Chapter 197 of the Acts of 1885 and of the Public
Statutes, Chapter 28, Section 25, and of Chapter 53, Section 15, and of
Chapter 113, Section 27, the following rules and regulations for the pas-
sage of carriages, wagons, carts, trucks, sleds, sleighs, and other vehi-
cles in and through the streets and public ways of the town of Wakefield,
are this 8th day of September, A. D. 1891, made by the Board of Select-
men of Wakefield, with penalties for the violation thereof not exceeding
twenty dollars for one offence.
Sec. 1. No person shall drive, wheel or draw upon a sidewalk or foot
path, a coach, cart, hand cart, hand barrow, bicycle, tricycle or other
carriage of burden or pleasure*, except children's carriages, or carriages
containing children or invalids only, and drawn by hand.
Sec 2. No vehicle without a horse harnessed thereto shall remain in
a street during the night or on a Sunday ; and any vehicle so left shall

PERAMBULATION OF TOWN LINE.
Upon the notification of the Selectmen of the town of Stoneham,
the Selectmen of the two towns perambulated the town line be-
tween the town of Stoneham and Wakefield, as provided by law.
We found the stone bound at the southerly end of Crystal lake
thrown down, and have had the same re-set. We also found a
cedar post marking the line 36 rods southerly from the last bound
in a state of decay, and partially overthrown, and replaced the
same with a stone bound which formerly marked the old line on
the westerly side of Crystal lake. The bound stones upon the
several streets over which the new line runs are now in position,
and all the bound stones are now in good condition and properly
inscribed with the letters S. and W.
R. L. G. ARMORY.
It will be necessary for the town to take some action in relation
to providing armory accommodations for Co. A, Sixth Reg't, the
rent of the present quarters having been advanced from $400 to
$600 per year, and the owners of the property desiring to occupy
the entire building.
NUMBERING STREETS.
In consequence of the incomplete numbering of houses on the
various streets in town, supplemented by the suggestion of Post-
master Bowman, of the advantages likely to be gained by the
citizens upon the completion of such numbering, arrangements
were made with J. S. Mason & Co., of Boston, to systematically
rearrange and complete the work. The active co-operation of
Postmaster Bowman added largely to the permanency of the sys-
tem, and the work has been accomplished in a manner reflecting
great credit upon the firm employed, and doubtless will be thor-
oughly appreciated by the public.
CLAIMS.
The suit of Rebecca C. Arrington against the town has been
settled by the payment of the award and costs of suit, as ordered
and provided by vote of the town.
72
CLAIM OF FRANK MCGLORY.
The suit for damages alleged to have been sustained by the
claimant on Railroad street, and which has been pending since
1890, was tried at the Superior Court during the month of Janu-
ary, 1892, and a verdict was rendered in favor of the town.
POLICE AND NIGHT WATCH.
The present system of Police Organization, we believe, meets
the cordial approval of the citizens, and heartily commends itself
for its efficiency in administration. Attention is called to the
report of the Chief, and his recommendations, approved by former
Boards, in view of future requirements, are renewed and re-
affirmed. The officers are careful and painstaking, and have well
earned the confidence of the people. The constant calls for ser-
vice, which the town cannot overlook or refuse, call for an
increase in appropriation to meet ordinary expenses.
TOWN HOUSE BUILDING.
An inspection of this building discloses the necessity of repairs
upon certain portions, and the following facts are herewith stated :
The coving on the tower is in a state of decay, and may require
an expenditure of fifty dollars. The window sashes all over the
hall need to be drawn and recovered with oil or shellac to prevent-
further decay. Some of these windows have been, and are now,
so constructed that no repairs could be made without removing
parts of attaching obstructions, and many of the windows need to
be properly hung. These repairs may require an expenditure of
$150. The return pipes to the boiler are now too small. At the
time they were placed in position, they performed the work for
which they were intended, but the large and constantly increasing
extension of radiating surface, for heating, renders them unsafe,
and the three-fourths inch pipes now in use should be replaced
with, at least, two inch pipes. The cost of this work will proba-
bly not exceed the sum of $200.
STREET LIGHTS.
As directed by the town, at the last annual town meeting, the
contract for furnishing gas for street lights was continued for
three months. We were afterward informed that the town was
consuming more gas than they were paying for, the company
73
claiming that the burners used consumed from six to eight feet
per hour, instead of four feet, upon which basis the contract was
made, and the Gas Company declined to contract further upon that
basis, or for the price heretofore received ; and, if such lights are
used, it will be necessary to make a new contract for future needs.
BOYNTONVILLE.
The petition of citizens of that part of Wakefield called Boyn-
tonville, to be set off from Wakefield and annexed to Melrose, has
been made the subject of town action. That the citizens of that
locality should desire increased facilities and accommodations, is
not exceptional. We all desire a larger measure of the good
things of this life. Our time for the enjoyment of such benefits
is limited, and we are constantly striving for the attainment of
the best. But the inevitable friction hinders, and we force or
bide the time of its accomplishment, as the temper of the times
may demand. The nearness of the building encroachments from
Melrose chafes the restive neighboring residents of Wakefield, and
emphasizes the intensity of the contrast. But we believe the cit-
izens of Wakefield are willing to grant to one section of the town
the same benefits we all enjoy, and we certainly ought to expect
that equal burdens would also follow.
INJUNCTION.
The order of the court enjoining the town from carrying out the
orders of the County Commissioners, relative to the widening of
Main street, has been dissolved, and the town will be called upon
to meet the needed improvements contemplated by the Commis-
sioners' order.
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS .
Our thanks are due to the Volunteer Hose Company for a very
important service rendered at the Town House, in connection
with what appeared to be an obstruction in the sewer main leading
from said building, and in flushing the pipes leading to the same ;
and our sincere acknowledgments are herewith extended.

The duties of Day Officer are so well understood by your Hon-
orable Board, and by the citizens generally, as to need but little
explanation here ; but the activities of effort and the numerous
calls for police investigation, the time consumed and the distance
and direction traversed, which go to make up the complement of
daily duty, may not be so fully understood as appreciated. These
matters are real, and as the population increases here and else-
where, so the necessity increases for more dilligent and more ex-
tended activity and effort. The constantly increasing number of
calls for police protection and investigation from outlying districts
necessitates an increase in time consumed and expenses incurred.
The records of this and former years show that the apppropria-
tions for the necessary performance of the duties of officers called
upon and expenses that must necessarily be incurred in the per-
formance of such duties, are not sufficient. It is a rule in many
cities and towns to have at least one officer to every one thousand
inhabitants. We have about seven thousand inhabitants and
but three officers on duty regularly ; but I think that perfect satis-
faction can be given by having in addition to the regular officers,
one or two officers detailed for duty in certain sections of the out-
lying districts on holidays, Saturday nights and Sundays. I
would therefore recommend an increase in the appropriation so
that all parts of the town may receive a share of police protection.
The timely precaution taken by the department and suggested
in the report of one year ago by Mr. Niles, in regard to the build-
ing of bonfires in the public streets on July 4th, and the prompt
action of the department, together with the satisfactory results
obtained, make it desirable that the suggestion then made should
continue to be the policy of the department, and the co-operation
of the people should be sought.
Assuming the duties of the office of Chief of Police at a time
when the municipal year was near its close, and as some of the
details of the department were in a measure unfamiliar to me, I
cheerfully take this opportunity of expressing my sincere thanks
for the assistance and advise voluntarily rendered by Mr. Charles
E. Niles, who kindly gave me the benefit of his many years expe-
rience as Chief of Police.
In closing, I desire to thank each member of the Board of
78
Selectmen for their kindly advise and co-operation with the
department. To Night Officer James A. McFadden, with whom I
have been so long and pleasantly associated, I extend my most
sincere acknowledgments ; also to Night Officer Edwin F. Poland,
and the whole department for the willing, faithful and efficient
manner in which their duties have been performed.

Chief of Police,

A contract for building a stone bridge across Foundry street
was awarded to George W. Killorin by the Board of Road Com-
missioners of 1890, for the sum of $150.
The acceptance of the said became our duty to perform.
Upon examination of said bridge, we found it short in length
and narrow in width, according to contract. We informed the
contractor that he must comply with said contract or make a
suitable deduction. The deduction was made and the bridge was
accepted by the Board.
A contract for building a stone bridge across Nahant street
was awarded to N. H. Dow, for the sum of $150. It was built
satisfactorily to the Road Commissioners, was accepted and bill
approved by the Board.

The stone crusher has not been run this last season, for the
following reasons :
That in our judgment it would not be safe to run it where it
now sits.
And it is our opinion that crushed stone can be delivered in the
central part of the town for less expense than the town can
crush it, unless the crusher can be removed down onto the street,
and run in the winter season, when the cost of labor would be
very much less than in the summer season.
There has been $1,000 expended by contract for macadamizing

GUIDE BOARDS.
The guide boards are in good condition at the present time.
Having found quite a number down, and a large number of streets
without them, we have had 37 made and put up.
The list of town property remaining in our hands is as follows :
1 road scraper, 1 road roller, 1 battery and lead wires, 8 snow
plows, 3 triangle snow plows, 12 picks, 2 shovels, 3 rakes, 2 grub
hoes, 1 iron bar, 10 drills, 2 potatoe diggers, 1 striking hammer,
1 ledge hammer, 2 axes, 1 hoe, 4 forks, 1 spirit level, 1 chopping
block (town house cellar) , 2 lanterns, 1 covering stone for sand
catcher.
For further details we respectfully refer you to the financial
reports.
The Board has had five special and thirty-four regular meetings
since it was organized.
Respectfully submitted,

BOARD OF HEALTH REPORT.
The citizeDS, at the annual election, saw fit to continue in office
the same Health Officers who served last year, and the organiza-
tion of the Board has remained the same, so that this year's work
has been a continuance of the line laid out for last year. Our
results have been as satisfactory as the composition of the Board
would lead us to expect, 'but it has not at all times been as com-
plete as we would like, because it was impossible for the members
to give the time to the needed work, without neglecting to a large
extent, their own private business. We have failed to undertake
a number of improvements that are needed, and that would be for
the sanitary benefit of the town, because the time could not be
spared to carry then out properly.
Chap. 80, Sec. 6, of the Public Statutes gives the Board
authority to establish the pay of all persons who are employed by
it to enforce its regulations, and this leads us to make this
SUGGESTION.
That future Boards of Health employ a health officer or in-
spector, whose business it shall be to patrol the town, especially
during the summer months, and inspect the sanitary condition of
cesspools, privies, etc., and to rigidly enforce the regulations,
and, if necessary, prosecute all persons neglecting or refusing to
comply with the rules of the Board.
This suggestion is the result of our experience in endeavoring
to enforce the laws of the health department, and is the only
practical means by which the town can be kept in a proper sani-
tary state. Human nature is the same in sanitary matters as in
other things, and people will backslide if they get a chance, and
unless they are compelled to do a thing it is pretty sure to remain
undone. Now, it is the business of the town to protect its citi-
zens against sanitary backsliders, just as it would against legal
87
offenders, and by the present system this has not been done. It
is not that people are malicious in their breaches of sanitary laws,
but it is the fatal indifference that saps the strength of the best
regulations. We think if we had an effective inspector who
would enforce the law, prosecute a few delinquents, and show the
people that he meant business, for a year or two, that we would
create a sanitary conscience that would take care of those things
without much further watching.
DEATHS.
The number of deaths in town this year has been the largest
ever recorded, there being 143 persons in all who died in Wake-
field, beside 8 others who died in hospitals out of town. The
average death rate for many years has been about 110, and there
is no apparent cause for the large increase this year. Consump-
tion has a larger percentage than usual to its credit, there being
usually about 15 deaths annually from this cause. Seven persons
died of typhoid fever, the result of the endemic last fall, whereas
there are usually no deaths from this cause. The variety of
causes is only slightly increased and presents no remarkable
feature.

each :

CONTAGIOUS DISEASES.
During the spring an epidemic of measles occurred, but was
harmless in its results, there being no deaths from it, as it took
on a mild form. The cases of scarlet fever in this year's report
formed the close of the severe run that started in the fall of last
year. There has been very little diphtheria we are glad to say, and
hope the town may always be as free from this unwelcome visitor.
But if it is n't one thing, it is another ; and this year we have to
report an unusual number of cases of typhoid fever, which is
regarded as a contagious disease, and which kept the Board very
busy while it was with us. It is a good many years since so
many cases of this disease occurred in Wakefield, and it amounted
to an epidemic, or rather an endemic, as it was confined to one
locality. Why we should have it now more than before was a
question that puzzled the Board, and we gave a good deal of time
to its solution, but with no satisfactory results.
The first case occurred in April, on Nahant street, and the next
on Railroad street near the gas works, and then one on Lafayette
street. These, however, were unimportant, as they seemed to
have no connection with the others that followed.
The endemic really commenced about the 20th of August on
Melvin street, where a case was reported the 25th. This was fol-
lowed by three cases in one family on Bateman court, a short
street leading off Melvin street. Next came a case on Richardson
street, only a short distance away; and, until Sept. 7, every case
reported, fourteen in all, were in this same district, within a
stone's throw of each other. After that it seemed to have left
for new fields, the next case being reported from Valley street,
followed by others from Wiley place, and one each from Pearl
and Salem streets ; and then it returned to Melvin street and
vicinity the last of September, where it stayed until the first of
November.
It is usual to have from one to five cases of typhoid in different
parts of the town through the year ; but why it should prevail this
89
year in one district, as it has, is a question the Board cannot
answer, notwithstanding a careful inquiry into the matter. Many
theories have been brought forward, but they are only theories,
and nothing has been found that could satisfactorily explain the
visitation of this dread disease.
The sanitary condition of the locality has been blamed for it,
but we think unjustly, as it is no worse to-day than it has been
for years, and, as a whole, is not in an uncleanly condition. To
be sure there are places where the privy and sink drains are not
kept in proper condition, but all these places did not have typhoid
fever, while others that were apparently clean did have it. There
are places in the Centre and other parts of the town that in sum-
mer are as bad or even worse than the "hill" district; and yet
they had no typhoid.
The pollution of the water-supply was another supposed cause,
and of them all this seems the most probable ; but yet, after a
careful chemical and microscopical analysis of the contents of dif-
ferent wells supplying water to people living in houses where the
disease occurred, no germs of the disease were found, and it could
not be positively said that patients were infected by drinking well
water. Pollution of drinking water usually results from the con-
tents of privy vaults, cesspools, etc., flowing into it, carrying
bacteria and disease germs which are transferred to the human
system by drinking the water. In this case the origin of the dis-
ease in the district by water pollution is eliminated, as the Melvin-
street district is supplied with town wrater from Crystal Lake, and
by analysis this has been shown to be comparatively pure. But
in Wiley place there is no water-supply except from wells ; and
here we might expect to find the origin of the fever and would
look for the largest number of cases ; but in the whole of Wiley
place there were only two houses in which the disease occurred,
while every house is supplied with water from a well. And those
wells which furnished drinking wrater for the persons who had the
fever also supplied others who did not contract the disease.
In seeking the source of the trouble, the Board was impressed
with the fact that nearly every one who was taken sick with
typhoid fever at this time was employed in the factory of the
Wakefield Rattan Company, and our attention was directed to
12
90
this place as possibly furnishing a solution of the question. Of
thirty-three cases reported between August 27 and November 1,
sixteen patients were employed in the factory, and ten other cases
occurring in the same families resulted by infection, no doubt; so
that twenty-six cases may be said to have been more or less
intimately connected with the factory. To determine, if possible,
whether the unsanitary state of the rattan works was to blame,
the Board together with Mr. Fales, agent of the State Board of
Health visited the grounds, and samples of water from both the
wells from which operatives are accustomed to drink in sum-
mer were taken, and also from the taps supplying wash water for
washing the cane. The wash water is water that flows from the
Centre Pond to a reservoir on the grounds, where it is dammed
up ; and, after being used, flows off by the brook running down
Water street. The water in this reservoir on the day of exami-
nation was so filthy that a strong odor arose from it, and the sur-
face was nearly covered with a thick green scum, showing to the
naked eye that it must be a fertile field for the growth of bacteria.
The analysis of this water as given below shows it to abound in
bacteria, 7,820 being found in one cubic centimeter. This water
is not used for drinking purposes, of course. Well A is the upper
well near the stable, just within the Water street gate, and was
used a great deal during the summer by the operatives. The
water here was found to be quite pure on examination, and not
open to suspicion. Well B is situated at the lower part of the
yard and is several feet lower than well A. This well was not
used so much as the other one, as complaint was made that the
water did not taste so good ; and, on analysis, it proves to com-
pare unfavorably with the upper well. In no one of the samples
examined were typhoid germs found ; and as typhoid fever is
recognized as a disease due to a specific poison, the typhoid
bacillus, which is probably never generated de novo, the examina-
tions made have failed to show any water contaminated by the
poison, and so have failed to locate the origin of the disease.
However, as its development is favored by decomposing animal
matter, such as is found in foul drains, stagnant water, etc., we
can readily understand how it should develop near those sources
of water supply which have been shown to be polluted.
91
The only conclusion we could reach after our investigation, was
that a mild, and therefore unrecognized, case occurred during the
early fall in this district ; and, favored by water pollution or
otherwise, the disease spread by infection among those whose sys-
tems were open to the fever at that time.
The report of the State Board of Health on the analysis of
water taken from various wells and from the town supply is given
below. It will be noticed that the faucet water of which so much
complaint has been made at different times is shown to rank very
high in purity.

STATE BOARD OF HEALTH. — EXPERIMENT STATION.
Lawrence, Mass., Oct. 1, 1891.
J. A. O'Leary, M.D.,
Secretary of Board of Health, Wakefield, Mass.
Dear Sir, — I enclose analyses of waters obtained from Wakefield on
Sept. 14 and 19.
All of the wells, except A and B and that used by McGlynn, are so evi-
dently polluted by sewage as to be dangerous, when there are diseases
in their drainage areas, communicable by sewage-polluted waters.
None of the typhoid bacillus were found in the samples examined.
Respectfully,
HIRAM F. MILLS,

Chairman of Committee of State Board of Health.

EXPENSE ACCOUNT.
As will be seen by the Auditors' Report, the expenses of the
Board of Health for this year have been far greater than usual,
and this needs some explanation.
One of the largest items is the bill for services of the Health
Officer from March 26, 1890, to February, 1891, which is
$232.10. This is largely for work performed during the epidem-
ics of scarlet fever and measles in the fall, winter and spring of
1890-91, during which time, there were over three hundred cases
of those diseases. The Health Officer is the only member of the
Board who receives any remuneration for extra services, besides the
due portion of the $50, which forms the salary of the whole
Board. As he is the executive officer, all the heavy work falls
upon him, and he must investigate nuisances, placard houses, and
attend to the various duties of the health department.
But the greatest part of the extra expenditure was money paid
for assistance to poor families, during the run of typhoid fever
last fall. Occurring, as it did, among people who could ill afford
the burden of sickness of any kind, it found some families wholly
unprepared for the long siege and heavy expense that accompa-
nies this fever, and in need of immediate assistance. Appeals
were made to the town for aid and were referred to the Board of
Health, as the matter came under the head of contagious diseases.
Chap. 80, Sec. 40, of the Public Statutes provides that
"When a person coming from abroad or residing in a town in
this state is infected, or lately has been infected, with the plague,
or other sickness dangerous to the public health, except as is oth-
erwise provided in this chapter, the board shall make effectual provi-
sion in the manner which it judges best for the safety of the inhab-
itants, by removing such person to a separate house, or otherwise,
and by providing nurses and other assistance and necessaries,
which shall be at the charge of the person himself, his parents,
or master, if able, otherwise at the charge of the town to which
he belongs ; or, if he is not an inhabitant of any town, at the
charge of the Commonwealth."
Acting under this authority, we answered all reasonable calls
for aid, furnished physicians, supplied medicines, blankets, fuel,
94
in short, all things necessary, for the well being of the patients,
and kept watch of the cases until recovery was established.
As the average duration of this disease is about thirty days, it
will be readily understood why the expense was so great for the
number of persons assisted. In some cases only one member of
the family was sick, while in others there were two or more.
Some families asked assistance in part only, as for a nurse, or
medicine, while others were in need of everything, which we
supplied.
We were obliged to send to Boston for nurses as the local
nurses were unavailable for this disease.
Some of the money spent in this way will be refunded to the
town, we have no doubt, as soon as the persons assisted have an
opportunity to get on their feet again.
Below is a tabulated list of expenses :
No. of families assisted, 10 No. of persons assisted, 23
Physicians' fees, $213 75 Nurses' fees, $439 89
Medicines, etc., 118 70 Food and supplies, 55 08
Besides the above there are about $125 more in bills that will
have to go on to next year's account, because of delay in sending
them in before the last appropriation was exhausted.

dents and incendiaries. At fifty-eight of these fires the only
apparatus used was Johnson pumps, buckets and fire cans, or
other small appliances, and the fires were stopped by early work

from still alarms, and most of these were out in ten minutes after
the first still alarm was given ; at the other four fires the property
first fired was a total loss.
Number of town and private pumps and buckets used, over one
hundred each.
Only one building fire was above the first story.
Town fire appliances in charge of the Forest Firewards :
70 Johnson pumps, 60 balloon valves for pumps, 6 top valves, 6
discharge pipes, 6 tips, 5 dozen sprinkler nozzles, 100 2-gallon

OVERSEERS' REPORT.
The duties of the Overseers have been very much the same this
year as usual. We found we were coming short of funds, some
extraordinary expenses being incurred by reason of the epidemic
of typhoid fever, we having to provide nurses, etc., and we had
to call upon the town for an extra appropriation of $500, which
has been nearly all expended.
The work of the Board increases from year to year, as our town
grows and the calls for assistance come oftener, so that we shall
soon have to increase our annual appropriations.
The Danforth children, who were in the house at the beginning
of the year, were placed in the New England Home for Little
Wanderers and have found good homes ; we have also placed
James Barry in a good home. The health of the inmates has
been good the past year, with the exception of such trouble as is
incident upon old age.
The farm has produced large crops the past year, but prices for
farm products have ruled very low so that the farm does not
make so good a showing as it otherwise would.
The work of reclaiming the meadow land along the Saugus
River has been continued with good results.
The farm is in excellent condition and reflects honor upon the
town and credit upon its Superintendent and his wife, whom we
have engaged for another year.
It is the desire of the Board and also of the Superintendent that
the townspeople might, by personal inspection, see the farm and
its workings, and to that end Mr. Donald and his wife extend to
all the citizens of Wakefield a hearty invitation to visit them at
anytime, when they will be cordially welcomed and shown about
the farm.
100
Our experiment of delivering goods from the Almshouse store
has proved a success, and ought to be continued.

ENGINEERS' REPORT.
To ihe Honorable Board of Selectmen :
Gentlemen, — The Engineers of the Fire Department herewith
present their annual report, with a statement of its force and
apparatus, together with a complete record of all alarms of fire.
The force of the Department consists of three (3) Fire Engi-
neers, one (1) Engineer, one (1) Assistant Engineer, one (1)
Steward, thirty (30) Hosemen, fifteen (15) Hook and Ladder
men and one (1) Volunteer Hose Co.
The apparatus remains the same as last year, with the addition
of 100 ft. of hose for the Chemical Engine at Montrose.
The Engineers have caused six iron reservoir covers to be
placed as follows : one on reservoir at the North Ward, one at
junction of Salem and Pleasant streets, one on Park street, one
on Elm street, one on Richardson street and one at Greenwood.
During the year the location of the Steamer has been changed
to the intended engine house, corner of Crescent and Mechanic
streets, and is now located in the basement of the building, and
during the coming year it is the intention to remove the Carter
Hose and Washington Hook and Ladder companies to this build-
ing, which is more central than past locations, and must necessa-
rily tend to make the Department more efficient, by being able to
respond more quickly to the alarms.
During the year the Department lost by death one of its mem-
bers, David Graham, who has served faithfully as Steward of
Steamer Lucius Beebe Co. since its organization.
The accident to P. J. Flanders, Jan. 7th, is the only one which
has occurred during the year, to any member of the Department,
while on duty.
During the year the Fire Alarm has been extended, and boxes
located and numbered as follows : Box 6, located near the Alms-
house; Box 26, at the junction of Church and Railroad streets;
making in all a total of ten boxes. And your Board would
recommend that the system be still further extended, and a box
102
located near Wakefield Highlands ; also that a box be located at
the junction of Salem and Vernon streets, as recommended last
year.
During the year the Volunteer Hose Company have responded
to all alarms and done efficient service, and your Board would
recommend that the town pay said company a suitable compensa-
tion for their services the ensuing year ; they deserve the thanks
and praise of the community they endeavor to so faithfully serve.

times.
To the officers and members of the department, we are under
obligations for the good will shown, and for the promptness with
which you have responded to all alarms, and the cheerful manner
in which you have performed all duties.
The expense of the department has not exceeded the appropri-
ation. See report of Auditors.

TREASURER'S REPORT.
To the Citizens of Wakefield :
I herewith present my report of matters connected with the
Treasurer's department for the fiscal year closing February 1,
1892.
TRUST FUNDS.
Ezra Eaton Burial-lot Fund, $100.
This fund was a gift to the town, March 2, 1857, the income
of which is used at the discretion of the Board of Selectmen to
keep in repair the burial lot of the late Ezra Eaton.
The sum of $3 has been expended by the selectmen the past
year.
The Flint Memorial Fund, $1000.
This fund, from Mrs. Harriet N. Flint, is for the benefit of the
Beebe Town Library, the interest thereon to be expended in the
purchase of books.
The sum of $60 as interest one year to Feb. 1, 1892, has been
paid to the Trustees of the Library.
Dr. F. P. Hurd Library Fund, $2500.
This fund is for the benefit of the Beebe Town Library, and is
invested in coupon notes of the town of Wakefield, bearing interest
at the rate of four per centum per annum.
C. Wakefield Library Fund, $500.
This fund is also for the benefit of the Library, and is invested
in the same manner as the Dr. Hurd Fund.
Jonathan Nichols Temperance Fund, $1000.
This fund was a gift to the town on certain conditions as des-
cribed in the vote accepting the same. The conditions are such
that any young man of Wakefield, who files his name with the
104
Town Clerk, before he is sixteen years of age and declares his
intention not to drink intoxicating liquors, and not to chew or
smoke tobacco, until he shall become twenty-one years of age,
and shall have kept his pledge until that time, shall receive from
the income of the fund ten dollars, together with a certificate of
commendation from the Selectmen.
The Town Clerk has enrolled up to the present time, the names
of 280 young men who have thus pledged themselves, and the
Treasurer has paid the fee to five young men during the past year,
who have arrived at the age of twenty-one years, and certified
that they have kept their pledge, making a total of twenty-one,
since the fund became operative.

C. Sweetser Lecture Fund, $10,000.
This fund is now invested as follows :
Town of Attleboro 4s, due 1897, 5 Bonds $1,000 each, $5,000 00
Town of Brookline 4s, due 1893, 5 Notes $1,000 each, 5,000 00
$10,000 00
The income from this fund for one year, $400, has been paid
to Thomas J. Skinner, Treasurer of Sweetser Lectures.
This fund is for the purpose of providing such lectures as will
tend to improve the public mind. A reasonable fee for admission
is required, and the net proceeds of the Course are to be paid to
such charitable organization in said Wakefield, as the municipal
officers of the town may designate, to be distributed among the
worthy poor of the town.
The last report showed a balance of $126.33 as " net proceeds "
of previous years, held by the Treasurer, awaiting the action of
the Selectmen for its disposal, in accordance with the terms of
the bequest. The course last year showed a deficit of $24.75,
which was paid by the Curator, Mr. J. C. Hartshorne, who asked
the town at its annual meeting to re-imburse him. This request
was readily voted, and the money was duly paid him by the
Selectmen from the Miscellaneous Fund. At an adjourned meet-
ing held April 6, this action was reconsidered, and the town
voted ' 4 that the proper custodians of the fund be instructed to
pay the Curator $24.75, the amount of the deficiency, out of the
surpluf now on hand."
The Treasurer, believing that the action of the town was not
according to the terms of the bequest, asked permission of the
the Selectmen to obtain from S. K. Hamilton, Esq., his opinion
upon the legality of the vote. This request was granted, and the
following correspondence in relation to the matter took place, and
is here inserted in my report, both as a matter of information, and
record.
Wakefield, Mass., April 7, 1891.
S. K. Hamilton, Esq. :
Dear Sir, — The town at its meeting last evening reconsidered
its former action whereby it voted to re-imburse the curator of the
Sweetser Fund Lectures, for money advanced by him to pay bills
14
106
in excess of receipts, for the season of 1890-91, and the following-
vote was then passed.
u That the proper custodians of the fund be instructed to pay
Mr. Hartshorne $24.75, the amount of the deficit, out of the sur-
plus now on hand."
The said surplus consists of "net proceeds" from former yearly
courses which I am holding, in trust, to be distributed in accord-
ance with the terms of the will, and the vote of the town accepting
the same, passed April 6th, 1885.
The Selectmen have authorized me to obtain from you, as Town
Counsel, an opinion whether I can legally pay the amount referred
to from the said "net proceeds."
Will you please give me your opinion upon the matter, in writ-
ing, at your convenience.
Yours respectfully,
THOMAS J. SKINNER,
Treasurer.
REPLY.
Boston, Mass., April 16th, 1891.
Thomas J. Skinner, Esq., Treasurer of the Town of Wakefield:
Dear Sir, — Your favor of the 7th inst., asking for my opinion
upon the legality of the vote of the town on April 6th, in relation to
the payment to Mr. Hartshorne of $24.75, the amount of the deficit
occurring in the management of the Sweetser Lecture Course for
the year 1890-91, out of the surplus now on hand, and inclosing
a copy of that vote, and a copy of Items 22 and 33 in Mr. Sweet-
ser's will, and also a copy of vote accepting the same, passed
April 6th, 1885, was duly received, and I have given the matter
careful consideration, not so much on account of the amount
involved, as from the fact that a principle is at stake.
The bequests in Mr. Sweetser's will from which the town re-
ceives the fund, the income of which is expended for the support
of lectures, are contained in the two Items numbered above, of
which the following is a copy : —
Item 22. I direct my said Trustees to pay over to the said
Town of Wakefield, the sum of five thousand dollars to be re-
ceived and held by said town, in trust, for the following use, viz. :
To safely invest the same and expend the income yearly in pro-
viding such lectures as will tend to improve and elevate the public
mind, and to impose a reasonable fee for admission to such
lectures, and pay over the net proceeds of the same to such chari-
table organization in said Wakefield as the municipal officers may
designate, to be distributed among the worthy poor of said town.
Item 33. I direct my Trustees to pay over to said Town of
107
Wakefield the sum of five thousand dollars, in trust, for the same
uses as set forth in Item 22.
On the sixth day of April, 1885, the town passed the following
vote :—
Voted, unanimously, that the bequest of Cornelius Sweetser,
late of Saco, Maine, as named in Item 22 of his will, be and
hereby is accepted by the Town of Wakefield, the principal to be
held in trust, and income to be used as directed in said will, and
that the Town Treasurer be authorized to receive and receipt for
the same, and to invest the same in such securities as shall meet
with the approval of himself and the Board of Selectmen ; that the
Selectmen be authorized to take charge of the expenditure of the
income, or appoint a committee to act in the matter for the town,
and that the distribution of the net proceeds shall be under the
direction of the Selectmen.
Similar action was taken at the same meeting upon Item 33.
It will thus be seen that the town accepted the trusts according
to the provisions of the will, and prior to the receipt of the money
voted that the distribution of the net proceeds should be under the
direction of the Selectmen, and the money was paid over to the
town upon the faith of that acceptance and vote. It is certainly
parliamentarily incorrect to pass the vote of April 6th, 1891,
depriving the Selectmen of the power to make distribution of the
net proceeds granted by the vote of April 6th, 1885, until that
vote has been rescinded. Indeed, it would be somewhat difficult
to determine what your duty would be as custodian of said fund,
in case it were necessary to do so, solely upon the question of the
failure of the town to rescind its former vote ; but, fortunately,
the question whether you can legally pay the amount referred
to from the " surplus now on hand" does not depend on any
question of parliamentary law or upon any nice distinctions of the
legal effect of the vote of April 6th, 1891, upon the vote of April
6th, 1885.
The town accepted the trust upon the terms contained in Item
22, above quoted, and the legality of the vote of April 6, '91,
can be properly determined by the construction of said Item,
which is couched in reasonably plain language, and as free from
ambiguity as such bequests are usually made.
It must be borne in mind that this Item is contained in a will,
which belongs to a class of written instruments in which there are
found few, if any, so well defined and precise expressions as in
deeds of real estate or other contracts, in writing, between two or
more living parties, which are usually subject to the criticisms of
parties having diverse interests, and as wills are usually the expres-
sion of one man's wish, a greater looseness of expression has al-
ways been tolerated ; and in the construction of all testamentary
108
instruments there are no such exact and iron-clad rules as are
found in the law relating to deeds and other written contracts.
The fundamental and cardinal rule to be invoked, in the construc-
tion of a will or any part thereof, is, to ascertain the testators
intention. What the testator intended at the time he executed
his will the Courts will strain to discover. It may be laid down
as a safe rule that if the Courts can discover from the will itself,
from the testator's surroundings, or almost any other extrinsic
evidence, what his purpose and intention was, they will execute
that intention unless it contravenes the law or some sound govern-
mental policy.
It is hardly necessary to go outside of Item 22 of Mr. Sweet-
ser's will, to discover what lay in his mind at the time he wrote
it. It is apparent that his purpose was twofold : first, to make
provision for a course of lectures, which should tend to improve
and elevate the public mind ; and second, to make some provision
to aid the worthy poor of the town.
To do this, he bequeathed to the town two sums of money
amounting to ten thousand dollars. He directed tha* the income
thereof should be expended yearly. He directed that a reasona-
ble admission fee to such lectures should be charged. The in-
come of the fund and the receipt from the sale of tickets, would
constitute the fund placed at the disposal of the managers of the
lectures, and make one side of the account. The expenses in-
curred in providing for the lectures would make the other side of
the account, and the excess of the sum placed at the disposal of
the management over their expenses would constitute the net pro-
ceeds referred to in said Item. These net proceeds constitute the
fund, which is to be used for the second purpose named. The
account must be balanced annually, in order to make it certain
that the income is expended yearly, and that the worthy poor of
the town receive the aid that the testator intended they should.
If the account is not to be balanced each year and the net pro-
ceeds distributed, it may very properly be asked, when shall it be
done and who shall determine the time? when shall the net pro-
ceeds referred to in the will be determined? Shall the account
be balanced once in five years, once in ten years, or once in a
hundred years? Shall the excess of receipts over expenses be
allowed to accumulate for generations, and then be distributed to
the worthy poor living in the town, on a single day? Certainly
no one will maintain that such was the intention of the testator,
or that such is a reasonable construction of his language ; and yet,
it follows logically and inevitably, unless the account is balanced
and the net proceeds ascertained each year. The only claim that
can be made to any other construction is the fact that the word
41 yearly," or some synonymous word, is not used in connection
109
with the distribution of the net proceeds; but it must be remem-
bered tlmt the whole Item is to be considered in determining what
any part of the same means, and that no clause or sentence can
be selected and construed by itself.
If we seek any evidence outside of the will to aid in ascertain-
ing the intention of the testator, we may very properly recall the
fact thai Mr. Sweetser was born and lived in New England, where
lectures and courses of lectures have been held for a great many
years, and that he was familiar with the usual custom of having
such Lectures in courses, during the autumn and winter months of
each year, and that the profit or losses of such courses have been
usually computed at the close of the season; and it may be well
inferred that this fact was in his mind when his will was drafted.
If I am right in the conclusion to which I have arrived,
that the balance must be struck and the " net proceeds" ascer-
tained annually, it follows that when this is done such balance, or
net proceeds, becomes instantly a trust fund, in the hands of the
holder, to be paid over "to such charitable organization in said
Wakefield as the municipal officers may designate, to be distrib-
uted among the worthy poor of the town," and cannot be diverted
to any other purpose ; and when it once partakes of that nature it
cannot be changed; and any accumulation of profits in any year,
or series of years, cannot be used for the purpose of paying any
deficiency accruing in any subsequent year.
I therefore answer your question, that the town had no legal
right to pass the vote of April 6th, 1891, and that the same is not
binding, and that you cannot, as Town Treasurer and custodian
of the funds, pay the amount referred to in said vote, for the
purposes therein specified, from the accumulation of profits or net
proceeds of former years.
Yours respectfully,
(signed) S. K. HAMILTON.
The position of the Treasurer having been sustained, the Board
of Selectmen ordered the distribution of the net proceeds referred
to in my last report, and the same has been disbursed as follows :
May 14, 1891, paid G. A. R. Post 12, Relief Com., $50 00
June 12, 1891, paid the Sweetser Charity, Mrs." W.
E. Rogers, Treas., . . . . . . 76 33

Note. For particulars regarding "The Sweetser Charity " see the
report of the Selectmen.

The sixth course of lectures, season of 1891-2, has consisted
of ten lectures. The course tickets were placed at 75 cents each,
and the evening tickets at 15 cents, a slight advance upon the fees
for the previous two years. There were 227 season tickets sold,
as against 365 in the previous course, and at time of writing this
report (at the close of the sixth lecture) the total evening admis-
sions were about the same as the preceding course. On account
of the closing lecture not being delivered until Feb. 15, it is not
feasible to print the financial exhibit in this report.
It would be advisable, if the Trustees would arrange future
courses to conclude previous to Feb. 1, at which date the town
accounts close, so as to be able to render full accounts with other
annual reports.

The Treasurer would recommend that the sum of S4,500 be
raised and appropriated for the payment of interest upon the
Town Debt and for Temporary Loans.
It will be necessary also to provide for the payment of S2.500
of the principal of the debt maturing during the coming year.
This amount was left unprovided for by the rescinding of
votes (July 22. 188V*. ) relative to the Hamilton School House
Loan and the Park Loan.
I recommend, therefore, the raising of S2,500 for the payment
of the town debt.
121
Other loans maturing during the year are provided for by pre-
vious votes of the town, as follows :
$4,000, Funded Loan, as voted April 2, 1888.
1,500, Renewal of loan, as voted July 22, 188U.
5,000, New Schoolhouse, as voted March 2, 1891.
These will be included in the tax levy of 1892, without further
action by the town.
In the last annual report the Auditors note the following per-
sons indebted to the town for concrete and highway bills for
previous years :
Freeman Emmons,
7 27
Peter McCullough,
5 07
Edmund Sweetser,
2 83
Philip J. Flanders,
7 00
Wakefield Water Co., .
5 00
The Treasurer has twice reminded these parties of their indebt-
edness, and requested payment.
The Estate of Lilley Eaton claim that the charge is not justly
due, because the estate was damaged much more than it was ben-
efited, and they have a contra claim against the town.
The Water Co. signify their willingness to pay the bill when-
ever the Supt. of Streets (Mr. Ricker) will show Avhere the work
was performed.
Mr. Flanders denies that he owes the amount named. Messrs.
McCullough and Sweetser have admitted the debt, and promise to
pay. Mr. Emmons does not reply.
Respectfully submitted,
(signed) THOMAS J. SKINNER,
Treasurer.

RECOMMENDATIONS.
The Board of Assessors is of the opinion, and would respect-
fully recommend, that action be taken to secure plans of the real
estate in Wakefield, especially in the central portion of the town,
for the purpose of securing a more complete and equal assess-
ment ; also that an allowance be made for the necessary clerical
services of the Board, thereby allowing the members more time
for the important work of assessing, believing that the return to
the town would be tenfold.

TRUSTEES' REPORT.
Churches, schools and libraries are the potent forces which
have given New England her pre-eminence in education and mor-
als, and stamped hers as the highest type of civilization.
To these her people are largely indebted for the influence they
exercise in every department of human thought and industry.
Without their christianizing and educating control, anarchy would
prevail and barbarism become universal. Powerful of themselves
as these agencies are, their power is multiplied by the accessories
which comfort and convenience demand.
Churches, without meeting houses, "live at a poor dying rate."
Schools, without good schoolrooms, lose much of their worth, and
libraries, whose books are not accessible to the public, soon be-
come piles of rubbish.
It is not enough that libraries should be established, books pur-
chased and catalogues printed, but opportunities and facilities for
examination and use should be provided. This is especially true
of that class of books ordinarily not allowed to be taken from the
library room known as reference books, of which so many are now
published and which are in constant demand. Those patrons of
libraries who seek information upon particular subjects, usually
desire to examine and study all accessible authorities upon those
subjects, and every one, even he who reads the lightest literature
is aided by a hasty glance over books before taking them home.
The cramped and poorly ventilated quarters in which our library
is located, and the utter lack of conveniences for examination and
study of the books which it contains, have led us to these reflec-
tions and to the determination to place the situation before the
people of the town in its true light so far as we are able.
The Beebe Town Library contains to-day nearly eleven thou-
sand (11,000) volumes. Every inch of available space in the
128
library room is occupied by shelves, and nearly every shelf is filled
with books. The ordinary purchases of another year will com-
pletely exhaust its capacity. Not only is there no further room
for books, but there is not even a place for a table or chair at
which one can with comfort examine a dictionary, a volume of the
encyclopaedia, a map or other work. The only facilities which
the library offers its patrons for study are a shelter from the storm
and the privilege of standing at a counter under a blazing gas jet.
Thus are our people largely deprived of the use of their own
property and of the learning and culture which naturally follow
the use of that particular kind of property.
This is not right. Larger and more spacious quarters, with
the necessary adjunct of study rooms supplied with the furnish-
ings and accessories which a well-ordered study requires must be
furnished, or further acquisitions to the library be abandoned.
Nearly twenty thousand volumes, or over sixty-five per day,
were delivered from the Library during the past year, which de-
monstrates the fact that ours is a reading community and the latter
alternative will not be considered.
What form these larger quarters shall take, how and when they
shall be obtained, are serious questions which call for a speed}7
answer. It is difficult to see how any portion of the Town Hall
with its present occupants can be utilized to advantage ; it is pos-
sible, but barely probable, that suitable rooms could be obtained
elsewhere at a rate which the town would be warranted in paying,
but rented quarters for this purpose are for manifest reasons
undesirable, and there remains the only other alternative, of erec-
ting a Library building adequate in size to the present and future
needs of the town, and which shall contain rooms for reading and
studying, furnished with all the essentials to develop its highest
usefulness. Viewed in all its aspects, this is the wise, the true
and the economical solution of the problem presented. However
chary of large indebtedness, however economical in municipal ex-
penditure, and however conservative in thought and feeling we
may be, the march of events crowds us to-day, where yesterday
we dared not tread ; and we must keep step to the music of
progress about us.
Within the last decade we have seen Maiden and Woburn make
129
wonderful strides in population and wealth. Who can say to
what extent these cities have been aided by their excellent libra-
ries and beautiful library buildings? Who can count the num-
bers who have been drawn to those places by the air of culture
and refinement which the possession of such structures and their
contents affords? It may be answered that these cities owe their
possessions to the munificence of some one of its citizens, and
that Wakefield has no one on whom it can lean for largesses of
this character. And it is true; but she has a population who are
" neither rich nor poor," who have learned the value of a dollar
by earning it, and who the better can appreciate either the neces-
sity or the luxury which its expenditure brings.
The book which costs us the greatest effort is the most highly
prized and the most thoroughly digested.
To the erection of a new library building we invite the thought-
ful attention of the town.
READING ROOM.
The Reading Room continues to be a useful adjunct to the
Library, and during the past year has well filled the place for
which it was designed. On its tables may be found the best
literary and scientific publications of the day while " Judge " and
" Puck" are not excluded. The advantages of the Reading Room
are appreciated by a large number of our people as shown by
the patronage it receives.
A few additions to its current literature should be made the
coming year.
In our opinion it should be open on Sunday, and we recommend
an additional appropriation therefor. We append a list of the
publications upon its table.
STATISTICS AND FINANCES.
For interesting statistics we refer to the report of the Librarian
hereto appended, and for a statement of the finances of the
Library to the Treasurer's Report.
During the year the Board has lost an active member, and the
town a valued and valuable citizen by the death of Dr. Preston
Sheldon. As a man and public official his integrity and ability
were recognized. In his profession he had entered upon a career
17
130
which promised wide usefulness and eminent success. His culture,
knowledge of books and literary tastes peculiarly fitted him for the
discharge of any duty in connection with the Library, and made
him a delightful social companion.
The Selectmen and the Trustees in joint convention, elected
Rev. Charles J. Ryder to fill its vacancy until the next annual
meeting. The term of office of Messrs. Winship, Richardson and
Hamilton will expire at the end of the present municipal year, and
the town wijl be called upon to elect four Trustees, one for two
years and three for three years each.
books.
The annual library bulletin will be issued as soon as practicable,
showing the additions to the library during the current year.
In the meantime we call attention to a few of the valuable
works in the various departments, which have been purchased.
Mr. Rogers has been for several years the selecting and purchas-
ing agent for the Trustees, and it is only just to him that the
town should know, that to his learning, judgment and fidelity, it is
indebted for the excellent selection of books placed upon its
library shelves. It is a great pleasure to the other Trustees to
convey this information to the town and incorporate it in their
report, which is done without his knowledge. The following is a
list of some of the most valuable books added to the library
during the year.

AUDITORS' FINAL STATEMENT.
From March 5, 1891, to Jan. 28, 1892, the Selectmen have
drawn 1,149 orders on the Treasurer, representing $118,521.06,
being the largest volume of business in the town's history. We
have examined the vouchers for these payments, and our report
upon them will be found on pages 135 to 175, arranged in the
departments to which they belong.
Our final balance sheet (page 176) shows a total expenditure
of $125,072.05, which includes $6,550.99 disbursed directly by
the Treasurer for town debt and interest, and Library and Read-
ing Room payments. We have verified the receipts of such
departments as pay m oney to the Treasurer ; we have examined
the books of the Collector of Taxes, and of T. J. Skinner, Treas-
urer of the Library and Reading Room, and find them correct
(see pages 118 and 119).
We have also examined the accounts of Mr. Skinner as Town
Treasurer, and find them correct, as shown on pages 116 and 117,
with the proper vouchers for all receipts and payments ; and that he
has a cash balance of $16,468.10 on deposit in the National Bank
of South Reading. We also certify that he has securities and
deposits representing the C. Sweetser Lecture Fund, Burial Lot
Fund and Library Funds (see pages 103 to 105).

SCHOOL COMMITTEE'S REPORT.
To the Town of Wakefield: —
In accordance with the public Statute requiring annually a
report of the School Committee regarding the condition and needs
of the schools, we herewith submit the following report : —
The duties of School Boards are little understood by the
public except in a general way, and the following from the
American School Board Jon nidi by Henry S. Boltwood, gives a
concise and interesting description of the "True Function of
School Boards : "
"The School Board is the business representative of the
community in school affairs. It is a standing committee of
ways and means to provide for economical, harmonious and effi-
cient administration of the schools. It possesses more absolute
authority than any other body known to a free government. It
is legislative, executive and judicial, all in one. It is to watch
over and protect the rights of all ; to hold each party to its obli-
gation to the rest. It protects the child against incompetent,
unreasonable and tyrannical teachers, and teachers against selfish,
violent and unreasonable parents.
"To teachers they are the power behind the throne in support
of lawful authority: privileged advisors and counsellors. They
judge school work from without, — from a layman's stand-point.
Teachers sometimes stand too near their work to judge its results
as well as those who may know less of the details of it, but who
are very probably better judges of the actual wants and educa-
tional possibilities of the community. The most important duty
of a school board is the selection of suitable teachers. Careless-
ness, neglect and favoritism in this are unpardonable sins.
Having made wise selections, they are to retain the competent,
pay them honest wages, give them moral support, and assure
180
them their places during good service. If incompetent, they owe
it to the public to remove them, without fear or favor ; in spite of
the clamor of friends or the pleadings of poverty. Common-
sense, grit and grace are the prime qualities of a good school
director. Unpaid, often unappreciated, often between hammer
and anvil, he needs all three."
The above reference to unpaid School Boards refers to towns
employing a Superintendent, in which case no compensation is
allowed the School Committee. Called upon, as School Boards
are, to settle troubles which often arise between teachers and
pupils and parents, their decision sometimes seems to one or
the other, unjust and arbitrary, when if both sides of the trouble
could be seen by those directly interested, the decision might not
seem so unjust. Parents do not take that personal interest in the
schools that they should. It is to be regretted that they do not
visit the schools more. A more intimate knowledge on the part
of parents of the arduous duties of teachers, would lighten the
teacher's burdens by the more charitable judgment which would
be rendered.
Teachers as well as parents are human, and children, at least a
large portion of them, are far from angelic in school, whatever
they may be in their homes. Sometimes parents hardly know
what to do with tivo children; still they expect teachers to know
just what to do in each individual case with forty or more.
Children are great reflectors of their parents' feelings, and if
parents are so indiscreet as to discuss unpleasant school matters
before their children, criticising and condemning some action of
the teacher, the result is anything but conducive to good behavior
in school.
Many times what seems to parents to be a serious matter as
reported to them, suddenly dissolves and vanishes upon a per-
sonal interview with the teacher and hearing her side of the story.
SCHOOL ACCOMMODATIONS.
For a number of years past our school accommodations have
been insufficient in the Centre and West Districts and the Frank-
lin-street District. The Committee repeatedly brought the matter
before the town, and their efforts finally resulted in the action of
181
the town at its annual meeting last March, in voting to erect a
commodious brick building to replace the two wooden buildings
on Academy Hill ; and in April ground was broken for the new
building, the old buildings having been moved to the west end of
the lot.
This building is a substantial brick structure with ten school
rooms, two good recitation rooms, a teachers' room and several
minor rooms. It is to be heated by steam by indirect radiation,
either hot or cold air, as desired, being forced into the rooms by a
Sturtevant blower. The building, though plain, presents an im-
posing appearance, being well proportioned and finely situated.
It will be a credit to the town as well as to the architects, Messrs.
Wait & Cutter.
The erection of this building will relieve the schools of the
Centre, and for the present the West District; bill better accom-
modations are still needed at the Franklin-street School. The
two lower rooms of this building are small and crowded, with no
satisfactory way of relief, except by erecting a new building or
remodeling and enlarging the present one. By the latter plan an
attractive, substantial four-roomed building can be made at about
one half the cost of a new building of the same size. With the
above changes, the accommodations for the present in other
districts are ample, but in the near future increased accommoda-
tions will be needed at Greenwood. The West District is also
growing rapidly and another building will soon be needed in that
section.
OUR SCHOOLS.
We believe that we are justified in saying that our schools are
as efficient in their work as those of neighboring towns, but still
the Committee feel that they can and should be improved. We
realize the fact that a board of business men with their time fully
occupied by their business, cannot do full justice to the schools,
they cannot give the time which they feel should be given to
school work. To obtain the best results the schools should be
in charge of a good Superintendent, one who can give a large
portion of his time to personal supervision of the schools. It
would make the school work much more systematic and effective.
Under this system, good teachers would lose none of their person-
182
ality or efficiency, while all weak points would be more readily
noticed and corrected.
While all our schools are not strictly graded schools, only three
have more than three grades : the North Ward, Montrose and
Woodville schools. These have six grades each, the schools not
being large enough to warrant a change. It is obvious that a
teacher having but one grade, or but one class to each study, can
do much better work than one having six.
TEACHERS.
A teacher's life is anything but easy ; the compensation of the
average teacher is small and the work hard. Much is expected of
them, and rightly so, for they fill a responsible position and should
be well fitted for their work, mentally and physically, in addition
to having a natural aptitude for teaching.
The present good standing of our schools is owing largely to
the fact that we have, as a whole, an efficient, conscientious
corps of teachers. Of course all are not equally efficient ; this
can hardly be expected. No doubt each is aware of some defi-
ciency, some weak point in his or her work as a teacher ; perhaps
it is in government, or a lack of thoroughness, or an inability to
transmit one's own knowledge to the pupils. Some are wanting
in tact, others in patience. Tact, patience and control of one's
tongue are three prime factors in an efficient teacher.
Our teachers are appointed for one year unless otherwise stated,
and it is but just that they should consider themselves bound for
that length of time, provided they do their work satisfactorily.
But we have learned by experience that all do not consider them-
selves so bound. We have several times been put to much incon-
venience and trouble by the sudden resignation of a teacher in the
middle of the year, or perhaps in mid-term. Sometimes our first
intimation of a teacher's leaving is an application for her position
by some out-of-town resident. Committees are not inclined to be
unreasonable or to stand in the way of a teacher's bettering her
condition, but it seems hardly just that teachers should withhold
their resignation until the last moment, without even a previous
request or suggestion that they would like to be relieved. We are
glad to say that there have been some exceptions. The blame
183
does not always rest wholly with the teacher. Committees or
superintendents of other towns, desiring a good teacher, visit
some school in a neighboring town, and, if they like the teacher's
work, offer her a position at an advanced salary.
It is hard to replace a good teacher at any time, and especially
so upon short notice ; consequently in such cases teachers are
retained if possible. Formerly we were greatly troubled in this
way with primary teachers, and the only remedy was to increase
their pay to correspond with neighboring towns. The same
course should be pursued in some other grades, especially in the
High School. It is often said that there are plenty of teachers to
take the places of those wrho leave. This is a fact, but it is neither
pleasant nor profitable for our town to be a training school for
untrained teachers, and then lose them because neighboring towns
will pay more than we can.
Good teachers are plenty, but the demand for such is larger
than the supply. In all kinds of business inefficient workmen
find it hard to obtain work, fair wrorkmen obtain fair average
wages, while those ranging from good to excellent are seldom in
want of work at wages corresponding to their abilities, and the
profession of teaching is no exception to the above.
It is thought by many that school boards in appointing teachers
should give the preference to graduates of their own schools. Our
endeavor is always to get the best, irrespective of their place of
residence, but, other things being equal, residents of our own town
are given the preference.
THE HIGH SCHOOL.
Whoever originated the above title evidently had in mind a
high ideal, and the Committee have endeavored to keep the school
at least above the average, and, with the assistance of an efficient
corps of teachers, we feel that we have not entirely failed Our
school increases in numbers from year to year, and the graduat-
ing classes are proportionately large. Though the teachers are
doing good work they are laboring at a disadvantage. Under the
present conditions, classes are limited to a minimum amount of
time for recitations, and even with this arrangement it has been
184
found necessary to omit rketoricals from the course of study.
The size of the school and the work requires another assistant.
During the summer vacation one of the class rooms on the third
floor was enlarged and fitted up for a physical laboratory, and
with the money which the town generously appropriated for the
purpose, the room has been supplied with much needed new and
modern apparatus, and is now one of the best equipped physical
laboratories in the county if not the state. The former laboratory,
on the first floor, has been arranged for the use of the committee,
while the room vacated by them on the second floor is now used
as a class room. This gives the entire second, and a part of the
third floor of the building to the use of the High School.
The distribution of tickets for the graduating exercises has been
a disagreeable and perplexing duty, and the methods of former
years proving unsatisfactory alike to the committee and the public,
it was decided last year to adopt another method, and, after
reserving seats for those most directly interested, the balance of
the tickets were sold at ten cents each, the proceeds being used to
defray the expenses.
It is a serious question with the Committee whether it is not
best to omit these graduation exhibitions. They are expensive in
every way, both to the town and to graduates. It takes valuable
time from the school work ; time which, especially to those pre-
paring for college, is a decided loss. In fact, the good, if there
be any, resulting from these exhibitions, does not in any degree
balance the time, labor and expense necessarily spent in prepara-
tion. In neighboring towns they are doing away with these
exercises.
Parents or those interested can get a much better idea of the
real merit of the school and its work by visiting the school and
hearing the recitations of different classes, and such visits would
be a great encouragement to teachers and pupils, and would be
gladly welcomed by all.
The graduating exercises occurred in the Town Hall on Wed-
nesday evening, June 24. The exercises were interesting, the
various parts being well rendered and creditable alike to teachers
and scholars.

HIGH SCHOOL PRINCIPAL'S REPORT.
Mr. A. H. Thayer, Chairman of School Committee:
My dear Sir, — In accordance with your request for a "re-
port of the condition of the school, the work being done, and its
general needs," I have the honor of submitting the following
facts and suggestions.
The record of the High School during the past year certainly
compares favorably with that of any similar period since the en-
gagement of the present Principal. Not only can it be said that
more work and better work has been done, but also a number of
important improvements have been made, which have aided ma-
terially in accomplishing this result.
What is true in the business and the political worlds is equally
true and ought to be true in the educational world. Activity and
progress is the watchword. New ideas, greater helps, better
methods, and higher aims are supplanting those of the past, and
while it is the part of wisdom to exercise a due conservatism
before adopting the new for the old, changes must certainly be
made from time to time, if schools are to reach and maintain the
high standards the public expect.
For a year or two it has been seen that the High School course
of study needed revision. After carefully examining the work
which was being done in some of the most advanced schools of
the state, a new course of study was prepared and adopted at the
beginning of the present school year. This cannot fail to be a
positive benefit to the school.
188
A more systematic arrangement has been made of the studies in
each course. Equal consideration has been given to the English
Course with the Classical. Heretofore three years were given to
the former and four to the latter. At present both courses con-
tinue four years. A thorough review of general history is now
required of all pupils, instead of those of any particular course ;
and English history, which, in a certain sense, is American his-
tory up to the time of the Revolution, becomes a regular study for
the first time in the school.
But perhaps the most important change in the whole curriculum
is the requirement for all pupils to take a thorough study of the
English language and its literature throughout the entire course.
Too much attention can hardly be paid in teaching scholars to
speak properly and write correctly their own language, while
at the same time acquiring a knowledge of its history and a love
for its classics.
The rapidly increasing demand for college preparatory work
made it imperative that a systematic course be prepared in
these branches, not alone that more satisfactory work might
be done, but that it might be simplified, each institution re-
quiring preparatory work peculiar to itself. The number of
pupils seeking this work has increased nearly fourfold during the
past three years. Twenty per cent of the whole school is now
engaged in college preparatory studies. The course is definitely
arranged for entrance into Harvard College, such a preparation
being sufficient to meet the demands of any college or technology
school. It really ought to be a source of gratification to the
citizens of Wakefield that so many of its young people are seeking
higher education, and that the graduates of its High School can
pass without further expense or study to their collegiate and
professional schools.
The teaching of science has undergone a radical "change during
the past few years. The old method of memorizing dry facts
and principles has given place to the reasonable and natural
method of studying by experiment. The Chemistry Laboratory
was fitted up three years ago, and has proved a most valuable aid in
the work of the school. A study which had been the most unin-
189
teresting, suddenly became the most popular. In accordance with
the same policy, a room on the third floor, little used, was remod-
elled and enlarged into a commodious and well-arranged Physical
Laboratory. A wise use has been made of the appropriation of
two hundred dollars voted by the town at its last annual meet-
ing for the purchase of apparatus. Much of the old apparatus
was either worthless or required extensive repairs, while many
modern machines and instruments were needed that had never
been owned by the school.
Especially was this need true in the department of electricity, a
study of which comparatively little was known a few years ago,
but which to-day has grown to so great practical importance and
interest. Other sciences, as Geology, Astronomy, Botany, and
Physiology, are taught, as far as possible, by natural methods,
thereby ingrafting in the minds of the pupils the invaluable lessons
of observation and investigation. While the most noticeable ad-
vance has been made in science teaching, still the departments of
History, Language, and Mathematics have not been neglected,
the keynote of the instruction being to lead the pupil to think and
investigate for himself, — in short, to obtain an education, not
merely knowledge.
Another improvement, and a great convenience, is the change
of the committee room from the second to the first floor, thereby
furnishing three recitation rooms on the same floor with the main
room of the school and doing away with the use of one flight of
stairs.
The general attendance of the school is not as high, in my
opinion, as a school of its character ought to have. The excuses
for absence, tardiness, and dismissal are in many instances trivial.
No student can be away from his studies one day without loss,
and no school can take a high standard of scholarship or deport-
ment when its*er cent of attendance is low. No parent should
allow his son or daughter to be absent from school, except upon
the most urgent necessity, and then an adequate excuse should
always accompany the return of the scholar.
The deportment of the pupils is as a whole very satisfactory.
The placing of the military organization directly under the control
of the School Committee, and the advance of each cadet being
190
dependent strictly upon his record of scholarship, deportment,
and military proficiency has been a great aid to discipline. The
system of government in the school, that of considering the pu-
pils young men and young women, has certainly raised the tone of
the school. There are individual cases where an appeal to honor
has little avail, but proper warning and frequent encouragement
seldom fail to have the desired effect.
Such in general is the condition of the High School at present.
The one hundred and twenty scholars are in most cases doing
work with credit to themselves and satisfaction to their instruct-
ors. I consider the school in good condition, but more teaching
force is needed for its improvement and the best interests of the
town. Last year an extra teacher was employed on account of
the delay in opening the school in the fall. This year with four
teachers it is impossible to do all the work assigned. In conse-.
quence, the important exercise of Rhetoricals, with its drill in
speaking and practice in writing, has been dropped, and recitation
periods have been shortened. The need of another assistant is
urgent. Other schools, doing similar work with the same number
of pupils, have five and six teachers, and oftentimes one of them is
a sub-master. I am sure that the extra expense of an additional
teacher would be more than met by better results in the school.
The school needs a number of first-class reference books. A
new encyclopaedia has not been added for years. The facilities
of the school in this regard have not kept pace with other improve-
ments. It would be a grand idea, if a separate appropriation of
fifty or seventy-five dollars were made each year for this pur-
pose. Reference books are costly, and such an amount would
not be unreasonable. The purchase of the Century Dictionary
by the School Committee during the past year was a splendid
service for the school.
It is unfortunate that the public library is nof in a building
in which ample facilities could be furnished for the direct use of
the books by the pupils of the High School. Every courtesy and
aid that can be granted is given at the library at present, but it
might be made a most valuable auxiliary to our schools if some
means, as a separate room, were provided, where students could
consult books of history, science, and literature, previously as-
191
signed for study or reference by the teachers. When a pupil takes
a book away from the library, its use is destroyed for the rest of
the class.
In conclusion, an urgent need of our High School to-day, which
would have as marked an effect upon the scholars and the teach-
ers as any I could mention, and one, too, which would require
no appropriation and very little effort, is the personal interest in
the school of parents and citizens, manifested by their visits,
while the school is doing its regular work.
Very respectfully yours,
C. T. C. WHITCOMB, Principal.
CADETS.
Under their able instructor, Lieut. Philip. J. Flanders, the
cadets still maintain a high rank in the Second Mass. School
Regiment, and made a very creditable showing at the Second
Annual Field Day at Lynn, May 9, 1891, standing third in the
list of competitors.
While under some conditions military drill in the schools may
prove objectionable and harmful, under proper restriction and
control it proves a benefit. There are very few young men who
do not take a lively interest in military matters. The method
adopted last year of making promotions conditional upon general
good character as well as faithfulness in school work and military
fitness, is a strong incentive to be deserving of promotion. The
cadets are to be commended for the good work already accom-
plished and we hope and expect that they will maintain the high
position which they have attained.
CHANGES.
♦
In September Miss I. H. Howe resigned her position as assist-
ant in the High School to accept a position in one of the Cambridge
schools, and Miss M. Sprague, a temporary teacher, was elected
to fill the vacancy.
192
At the beginning of the fall term Miss Whitman was transferred
from the Greenwood Intermediate school to the Centre First Inter-
mediate in place of Miss Charles, who was granted leave of
absence owing to ill health. Miss Theodora Teague, who had
been acting as assistant in the Centre Third Grammar was
appointed to the vacancy at Greenwood, but had hardly com-
menced her labors when she was offered a higher salary at
•Melrose, and the committee reluctantly accepted her resignation,
and appointed Miss L. P. McCormick, a teacher of experience,
and with excellent recommendations, to fill the vacancy.
Soon after the opening of the fall term Miss Marion Fish,
assistant in the Advanced Grammar school, received an offer
from the committee of Quincy, of a position in the High school of
that town, and the committee wrere obliged to lose an efficient
assistant, but were very fortunate in securing Miss A. L. Batt,
of Concord, Mass.
In January, just before the beginning of the winter term, Miss
E. R. Sanborn, who had taught successfully for the past seven
years, resigned, to accept a life position as assistant in a more
agreeable line of duty. To fill the vacancy, Miss Nellie F. Emer-
son was transferred from the East Ward school, where she had
taught for the past four years, and Miss Whitman was appointed
to that school, Miss Charles resuming her former position as
teacher of the First Intermediate school.
Soon after the beginning of this term, Miss Marshall, whose
parents had removed to Antrim,' N. H., resigned her position, as
assistant in the West Ward Primary school, and Miss H. J. Ardill,
a High School graduate of the class of '88, also a pupil of the
Normal school at Salem, was appointed assistant in that school.
We would again call attention to the disagreeable fact of the
liability of losing efficient teachers, especially in the higher grades,
because of our inability to pay such salaries as will retain the class
of instructors, which the committee desire should have charge of
our schools.
PRUDENTIAL.
The West Ward school-house has been repaired and painted,
and lake water put into the building. This was necessitated by
the poor quality of the well water, which was offensive both in
193
taste and odor, notwithstanding the fact that the well had been
thoroughly cleaned and the old pump replaced by a new one.
The Water Company's mains are not laid along this section of
the street ; consequently, as the Water Company gave no encour-
agement of laying their pipes any nearer, the committee, after
deferring action for a year, were obliged to lay a long line of ser-
vice pipe to the building at an expense of about $90.00.
Lake water has also been put into the North Ward school-
house, water for this building having been supplied for several
years by the neighbors. The well at the Woodville school has
been cleaned out, and the pump was removed from the West
Ward to this well.
The Hamilton school yard has been graded with soil taken from
the cellar of the new school- house on Academy Hill. This grad-
ing was much needed, as the street sidewalks had been raised,
causing the water to settle in the school yard. Owing to the
expense, where filling must be bought, the committee had post-
poned the work from year to year ; but having this opportunity
to obtain the soil for the cost of carting, arrangements were made
with Mr. Dow, and over one hundred loads of filling were spread
around the yard.
The school buildings at the North Ward, East Ward, Wood-
ville, and Franklin street need painting ; and the Greenwood
school-house needs shingling ; and the walls and ceilings of this
and the East Ward building need painting and tinting. This is
also the case at the High School building in the Advanced Gram-
mar school room and in all halls and class-rooms, very little hav-
ing been done to these rooms, since the building was first erected.
The heating and ventilating of the Franklin street building has
been greatly improved by the committee appointed by the town
to have charge of warming and ventilating the High and Franklin
street buildings. A contract was made with CM. Drennan &
Co., of Boston, who put in an arrangement for warming and ven-
tilating the entire building by one of Gold's Hygeian heaters,
which is working satisfactorily and has been approved by Mr. J.
T. White, State Inspector.
The heater and flues are so arranged that, in case the building
is enlarged at any time, the apparatus would need only to be dupli-
25
194
cated without disturbing the present arrangement. The condi-
tion of the air in rooms which are well ventilated is in strong
contrast to those not so ventilated, the air in these latter being so
close and disagreeable as to be almost unbearable to those who
are accustomed to fresh air.
EXPENSES.
The Committee each year make an estimate as closely approxi-
mate as possible to the amount needed for the different depart-
ments. It seems to be the opinion of some, that the Committee
frequently ask for considerably more than is actually required,
but such is not the fact ; they are more inclined to ask for less,
rather than more, than they believe is needed. For instance, four
school buildings ueed painting outside; three need renovating
inside ; the halls and class rooms of the High School building
need repairing; another building needs shingling; now which of
these much needed improvements shall be done this coming year,
and which shall be left undone? And so in other departments.
The Committee see changes and improvements which might be
made with advantage to the schools, but they are deterred because
of the expense, and make only such improvements as are felt to
be absolutely necessary.
Each year the Committee determine to keep the expenses
within the appropriations, if possible, but frequently find at the
close of the year that this or that department has over run.
Parties having accounts with the school department of the town
are largely to blame for this, as bills are not sent in promptly, or
with any regularity, and near the close of the year bills are sent
in, which, in some cases are unexpectedly large, while others
come too late for settlement, even though there is a balance to our
credit. It is often the case that if, at the end of the financial year,
the Committee were allowed to transfer the balance from one
department to make up the deficiency of another, that the appro-
priations, as a whole, would not be exceeded. Practically, the
town debt is benefitted or reduced at the expense of the schools,
by the amount unexpended at the close of the year.
195
INDUSTRIAL TRAINING.
Undoubtedly there is room for improvement in our public
schools, but in no line is there so great a chance for making them
of practical use to every day life as in the introduction of indus-
trial training. In any new venture or undertaking, the first step
is the hardest. Several towns have taken this step and still oth-
ers are following. We have no definite plan to present at this
time, possibly the town is not quite ready to make any decided
move, but we believe it would be a step in the right direction, and
the time is not far distant when the town will probably take some
action, and, as suggested in last year's report, introduce into our
schools some simple forms of industrial training.
RECOMMENDATIONS.
For many years past the various school boards have periodi-
cally recommended the employment of a Superintendent of
Schools . All persons interested in educational matters appreciate
the benefit of a systematic supervision of the schools by one
competent person. The employment of such a person, one who
would give his whole time to the schools of our town, would be
quite an additional expense, though one which would be most
satisfactory and yield the best results.
The following plans, though not so desirable as the first, would,
however, be a decided improvement over the present arrangement,
and at a comparatively small increase in expense :
First : — By uniting with one or more towrns in the employment
of a Superintendent ; or,
Second : — By appointing the High School Principal to act as
Superintendent in addition to his other duties. We would re-
spectfully recommend that the town authorize the committee to
appoint a Superintendent of Schools under one of these two
latter plans.
Upon the completion of the new school house, the old High
School building will be practically useless for school purposes,
and we would recommend that, when it is no longer required
for school purposes, that the building be disposed of at auction,
196
or in such manner as will insure its early removal from its present
location.
Owing to the crowded condition of the Franklin Street school
house, of which we have already spoken, we would recommend
that this building be enlarged to a four-roomed building, accord-
ing to the general plans procured by the committee two years
since. By these plans the required accommodations can be
obtained at about half the expense of a new building.
For the maintenance of the schools for the ensuing year we
would respectfulty recommend the following appropriations :
For general expenses, including teachers, janitors
and fuel, $21,180 00
For text books and supplies, .... 2,000 00
For contingent or incidentals, . . . . 1,716 00
Total, $24,896 00
This amount includes the outstanding bills amounting to
$693.83.
The appropriations and expenditures for the year passed were
as follows :
General, $19,000 00
Additional appropriation, ..... 800 00
$19,800 00
Paid teachers, .... $16,93673
" janitors, . . . 1,108 25

We wish to publicly thank Mr. Arthur H. Kingman for his gen-
erous gift to the High School, of a cabinet of mineralogical speci-
mens of fossils, corals etc., including a collection of birds and
bird's eggs. The collection includes about one thousand speci-
mens, and was secured, with few exceptions, by Mr. Kingman
personally, in his travels through the various states, during the
past twenty years.
The terms of office of Messrs. Rogers and Thayer expire with
the present year, leaving two vacancies to be filled for a term of
three years each.
Heartily appreciating the general support given the schools by
the citizens of the town, and hoping for the continued prosperity
of these, the foundations of our country, the above report is
respectfully submitted.
A. H. THAYER, Chairman,
S. S. WHITE, Secretary,

REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON
SEWERAGE.
At the November Town Meeting a Committee was appointed
consisting of Messrs. W. G. Strong, J. A. O'Leary, S. W. Ab-
bott, G. W. Harrington and T. J. Skinner. This Committee was
instructed "to consider the question of Sewerage for the town,
and to ascertain the expense of connecting with the Metropolitan
System of Sewerage, and recommend some method of raising the
necessary amount to pay for one of these systems, and report at
the annual meeting in March ; the Committee to have their report
printed in the next Town Report.
The Committee organized by the choice of W. G. Strong as
Chairman and Dr. J. A. O'Leary as Secretary. As the sewerage
and sewage disposal of Wakefield admits of several alternative
methods, of which it is desirable to choose that which is the most
practicable and the most economical, considering the interests of
the town, the* Committee at first applied, by letter, to the Metro-
politan Sewerage Commission, for a reply to the inquiry which
the town had instructed them to make, as to the u expense of con-
necting Wakefield with the Metropolitan System of Sewerage"
now being constructed to relieve the large district lying north and
west of Boston, and comprising fourteen cities and towns, and
having its general outlet into deep water at Deer Island.
To this inquiry the Commission replied as follows :
Board of Metropolitan Sewerage Commissioners of
Massachusetts.
93 Lincoln Street, Boston, Dec. 30, 1891.
Committee on Sewerage, Wakefield, 3Iass. :
Dear Sir, — Your communication of Dec. 24, 1891} asking
" the expense of connecting Wakefield with the Metropolitan
system of Sewerage" was duly received and laid before this
213
Board. There seems to be doubt, if, under existiug statutes,
this Board has any power to take any "land, rights of way or
casements " necessary to extend the sewer to your town. Section
3 of the act [Chap. 439, Acts 1889,] gives this Board 'power to
contract with cities and towns outside of the metropolitan district
"for the extension thereto of either of said systems of sewage
disposal, and for the reception and disposal of sewage therefrom,"
while (he succeeding section gives the right to take lands, etc.,
by eminent domain, only for "carrying out" *** "the recom-
mendations and plans of said State Board of Health contained in
said report." [Senate Doc. No. 2, 1889.] Wakefield, as you
are well aware, was not included in the Metropolitan District,
and it therefore seems as though this Board were powerless to se-
cure the necessary land for laying the sewer to your town unless
additional legislation be obtained.
For the Board.
EDWARD P. FISKE,
Clerk.
With reference to the feasibility of connecting Wakefield with
the Metropolitan System, Mr. Brooks states in his report to the
town in 1889, that "a depth of about twenty feet for a distance
of about half a mile would be required." This fact would render
it necessary to pump the sewage of the town to a considerable
height in order to reach the upper end of the Metropolitan sewer
at Melrose.
Under the provisions of the general act relating to the introduc-
tion of systems of Water Supply and Sewerage (Chapter 375 of
the Acts of 1889), it is required that all towns intending to intro-
duce systems of Sewerage shall first submit their plans to the State
Board of Health for its advice and approval.
Under the provisions of the act referred to, the Committee
made a definite application to the State Board of Health, dated
Dec. 30, 1891, at the same time submitting four alternative
methods of sewage-disposal, believing that the State Board would
indicate wrhich' method it deemed the most practicable and best for
the town to adopt. The Committee has therefore had the advan-
tage of such examinations of the question as the Engineer of the
State Board has made in his visits to Wakefield. These methods
were as follows :
1. That which was devised by F. Brooks, C. E. and was
214
printed in the Town Report for the year ending Feb. 28, 1889.
This plan provides for taking the sewage of the thickly settled
part of the town, and carrying it by means of a separate system,
by gravity, to about fifteen acres of porous land situated in the
south-easterly part of the town upon Farm street, upon the west
side of the street. This land may be supplemented by taking
more upon the east side of the same street. It all lies directly
upon the immediate water-shed of the Saugus river, the natural
drainage outlet of the town.
As alternatives to this plan the following were presented : —
2. Disposal upon land in the northerly part of the town situ-
ated east of the Danvers branch railroad and near the outlet of
Lake Quannapowitt, a tributary of the Saugus river. This might
require pumping for a portion of the town.
3. Disposal into the Saugus river below Howlett's dam in
North Saugus.
4. Disposal into the Metropolitan sewer, by pumping to
Melrose.
The actual necessity of an efficient system of sewerage for a
thriving and populous community like that of Wakefield is a ques-
tion which no longer admits of reasonable doubt. No town which
has once established a thorough system of sewerage has had reason
to regret the act. A good system of sewerage is second only in
importance to a pure and wholesome water-supply. In fact the
introduction of a water-supply makes the establishment of a sew-
erage system a matter of necessity. Since the greatly increased
flow of water, fouled with the sewage of many households,
pollutes the ground in all parts of the town. The cesspool is a
very poor makeshift for a good system of sewers. In 1889 there
were 100 water closets in the town, and that number is now con-
siderably increased. Nearly all of these are connected with cess-
pools. Mr. Brooks estimated that there were about 600 cess-pools
supplying the 5,000 inhabitants in 1889. The annual cost of
cleaning these cesspools was estimated at about $2,500 per year.
This sum is the interest at 5 per cent on $50,000, which would
pay for a large share of constructing a good sewerage system.
Added to this is the advantage of getting rid of the noxious sew-
age and making the whole town cleaner, more healthy and less
215
liable to epidemics of typhoid fever and other infectious diseases.
Many cities and towns in Massachusetts are already provided
with good sewerage systems. Some of these towns are smaller
than Wakefield, and there is not one of these places which has
not been greatly improved by their introduction.
Among these towns are Framingham, Marlborough, West-
borough, Nahant, Medfield, Gardner, Lenox, Amherst and
Pittsfield.
But the question of providing an efficient system of sewerage
for the town of Wakefield is by no means an easy task. The
town is not situated upon the sea-coast, like Boston, or Nahant,
or Gloucester, where it might dispose of its sewage into the sea,
in which it would soon disappear in the ebb and flow of the tides.
Nor is it placed upon a broad and rapid river, where the sewage
would be immediately carried down the stream, as is the case
with the cities and towns upon the Merrimac and the Connecticut.
The town is shut in by elevations upon all sides except the valley
of the Saugus river, which constitutes the natural drainage outlet
of the town.
The sewage may therefore be disposed of in different ways,
either by pumping over the elevations into the Metropolitan sys-
tem, by disposing of it upon land within the limits of the town,
or by turning it directly into the Saugus river at some point below
the town.
These points being understood the committee submitted the
question to the State Board of Health, for their advice, as is
required by the provisions of Chapter 375 of the Acts of the year
1888, which requires the State Board to advise the authorities of
towns c ' already having or intending to introduce systems of
sewerage, as to the most practicable method of disposing of their
sewage, having regard to the prospective needs and interests of
other cities and towns which may be affected thereby."
To this application the State Board, after submitting the ques-
tion to its expert engineers, and carefully considering the subject,
made the following reply : —
216
Oefice of State Board of Health,
13 Beacon St., Boston, Feb. 20, 1892.
To the Committee on Sewerage of the Town of Wakefield:
Gentlemen, — Your application, elated January 4, 1892, asks for
the advice of the Board with regard to a plan (1) for the disposal
of the sewage of Wakefield, which is that reported to the town
by a sewerage committee in 1889, and provides for the disposal
of the sewage upon land situated upon the west side of Farm
street in Wakefield. Advice is also asked upon alternative plans
as follows :
2. Disposal upon a tract of land in the northerly part of the
town, situated east of the Danvers Branch Railroad, and near the
Saugus River.
3. Disposal into the Saugus River, below Howlett's dam, in
North Saugus i
4. Disposal into the North Metropolitan Sewer at its nearest
practicable point in Melrose.
These four plans include but three general methods of disposal,
which may be considered in the following order :
1. Disposal by discharging crude sewage into the Saugus
river.
2. Disposal into the North Metropolitan System.
3. Disposal by filtration through land, permitting the purified
effluent to flow into Saugus River, or some of its tributaries.
The quantity of sewage produced in Wakefield is so great that
if it were discharged into the Saugus River without purification,
it would before long, if not in the beginning, pollute the stream
to such an extent that it would become offensive to those living
near it. This method of disposing of the sewage, therefore, can-
not be advised.
The plan for the disposal of the sewage into the North Metro-
politan System is particularly well adapted for the village of
Greenwood, from which it would be difficult to dispose of the
sewage by any independent system, or in connection with the
sewage of other parts of the town. For the main village of
Wakefield a connection with the North Metropolitan System could
not probably be made without pumping the sewage, and the cost
of pumping, together with the annual charge which would be
made for a connection with the Metropolitan System, even if per-
il1, ission can be obtained to connect with it, would probably make
this method of disposal cost more than an independent system for
purifying the sewage upon land, provided a suitable filtration
area can be found not too far from the town. There may be
reasons, however, which will warrant a connection with the Met-
ropolitan System, such as, for instance, the inability to find an
21'
area of sufficient size for the disposal of the sewage in the future,
which will not interfere with the growth of the town or pollute
future sources of water supply.
By filtering the sewage intermittently through porous land in
limited quantities per acre, where the surface of the land stands
live feet or more above the ground water, the sewage can be so
thoroughly purified that its discharge into even a small stream
will not be objectionable, and where a sufficient area of land is
available and proper care is taken to distribute the sewage evenly,
and otherwise to maintain the works in good condition, a sewage
field will not be offensive to those living in its neighborhood.
The plan reported by the sewerage committee of the town in
1889, which is the main plan submitted, has the advantage that it*
1 Mings the sewage to the filtration area by gravity, but it is defec-
tive in that it does not provide for the disposal of the sewage of
about one fifth of the buildings shown upon the plan, nor for the
sewage of the rattan factory, and the main features of the plan
are such that it would be necessary to reconstruct the main lines
of the system in order to include the buildings omitted. In addi-
tion to these principal objections to the plan, there are still others,
occasioned by the high levels of the outlet, such as the great
length of sewer in private property and the insufficient depth of
the sewers in some of the low lands, principally in the flat land
north of Crystal Lake. All of these objections would be met to
a large extent if the upper ten feet of the gravelly land near Farm
street should be excavated and spread upon the adjacent meadow,
and the main sewer lowered a corresponding amount.
If the modified gravity plan here suggested does not prove on
investigation to be the best one to adopt, it will probably be
necessary to pump all the sewage, in which case the main sewer
can be placed in the lowest land and sewage can be taken from all
buildings in this portion of the town. If the sewage is to be
pumped, the best place for purifying it is by no means evident
from the information now before the Board. The land near Farm
street, which it was proposed to use in connection with the gravity
plan as submitted, is of excellent quality but rather limited in
extent. It contains two small houses and a schoolhouse, aud is
not very far from settled portions of the town. It has the advan-
tage of being more accessible than any other disposal area, and if the
modified gravity plan above suggested should be adopted, the
available area could be increased to thirty or forty acres, which
would be sufficient for all requirements for many years in the
future.
The disposal area in the northerly part of the town, mentioned
as an alternative, is more uneven than the area near Farm street,
and the material is not as porous, although it has sufficient porosity
28
218
to permit the disposal of sewage in a satisfactory manner. This
area has the advantage that it is further from settled portions of
the town than the one near Farm street.
The Board advises the town to have the whole subject of its
sewerage and sewage disposal reinvestigated with a view either to
purifying its sewage by filtration at some place where sufficient
land can be obtained to meet the requirements for the next thirty
or forty years, or to pumping it into the Metropolitan System.
These examinations should also include a system for the village of
Greenwood, which can probably be taken care of better by the
Metropolitan System than in any other way.
There are a few points in this reply which it is desirable to con-
sider a little more fully. It is stated in the reply that, under
proper management, a sewage-field within the limits of a town
ueed not become offensive to those who live near it. Your com-
mittee found this to be the fact at Framinghain, where, on visiting
the sewage-field, they found the sewage rapidly disappearing
beneath the surface of the ground, even in midwinter. The same
is true in midsummer ; and one member of your committee, after
visiting many such fields both in Massachusetts and in other coun-
tries, reports that wherever the sewage-fields are well cared for,
there need be no grounds for fearing that they may prove to be
offensive.
During the course of this investigation by your committee, an
approximate estimate has been made with reference to the proba-
ble share which Wakefield would have to pay of the cost of main-
tenance, interest, and sinking fund, provided the town were granted
the right to enter the Metropolitan system of sewerage. The esti-
mate made is $3,900 per year as the probable share of Wakefield.
This has reference only to the share of the town in the running
expenses of the general system, outside the limits of the town.
The cost of constructing the sewer from Wakefield to Melrose,
together with the cost of the necessary pumping station and stor-
age-tanks are entirely unknown, and cannot be determined with-
out a survey which your committee was not authorized to make.
In concluding your committee would recommend that the town
should authorize a careful investigation of each of these questions
referred to in the advice of the State Board of Health, in order
219
that the best and most practicable system of sewerage may be
adopted for the town; and appropriate a sufficient amount for
further and more complete investigation of the subject.

OCTOBEK, 1892.
A. W. BROWNELL, PRINTER, WAKEFIELD, MASS.
REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON SEWERAGE.
Wakefield, Mass., Oct. 19, 1892.
To the Citizens of Wakefield: —
At the town meeting held in November, 1891, a com-
mittee was appointed for the purpose of considering the
general question of sewerage for the town, and to report
upon the same in the following March. The committee
appointed at that time attended to the duties prescribed,
and submitted the question to the State Board of Health,
indicating at the same time certain alternative methods of
sewage disposal, and asking the Board to state which method
the Board would advise the town to adopt as the best, the
most economical and the most practicable. The reply of
the Board is printed in the Town Report for the financial
year ending January 31, 1<S92.
In this reply the State Board advised the town "to have
the whole subjeet of its sewerage and sewage disposal re-
investigated with a view either to purifying its sewage by
nitration, at some place where sufficient land can be obtained
to meet the requirements for the next thirty or forty years,
or to pumping it into the Metropolitan System."
At the town meeting in March this question having
been submitted to the town, a new committee was appointed
with authority to employ an engineer at an expense not
exceeding $400, to carry out the advice of the State Board
and have a careful survey made.
This committee, consisting of Messrs. W. G. Strong,
Dr. *) . A. O'Leary, G. W. Harrington, W. E. Cowdrey and
Dr. S. W. Abbott, organized by choosing W. G. Strong as
Chairman and Dr. J. A. O'Learv as Secretary, and here-
t, ■
with presents its report.
The preliminary report of Fred Brooks, C. E., which
was made in 1889 upon the same subject, has afforded valu-
able aid in the investigation of the question.
The question of the sewage disposal of the town is not
easy of solution, as was stated in the report of last March.
The sewerage of the streets, including the adjustment of the
size of pipes, the fixing of their grades, the location of cut-
tings and embankments, underdrains. manholes, etc., in-
volve no very difficult problems, but the more important
question of the final disposal of the sewage, or contents of
the sewers, in such a manner that it shall cause the least
annoyance to the people, ^either of this town or to those of
other towns lying below us, is one of considerable difficult v.
For the performance of this important duty the com-
mittee secured the services of Louis Hawes, ('. E., who has
(riven to the work verv careful attention and whom the
committee desires to commend for the faithful manner in
which he has performed this difficult task.
The committee has also had the advantage, under the
provisions of the recent General Statute of 1888, of receiv-
ing the advice and counsel of the State Board of Health,
whose engineer has made repeated visits to the town, exam-
ined the different points involving difficulties of execution,
and given much time and assistance in examination of the
proposed plan.
The final reply of the State Board of Health, endorsing
and approving the system, as required by law, has been
received and is published with this report.
The advantages to be secured by the adoption of a
system of sewerage in a town are as follows : —
1. The removal from the inhabited parts of the town
of the excremental filth of privies, water-closets, bath-
rooms and kitchen sinks, which always constitutes a source1
of danger when stored in the soil, in cesspools and vaults,
underneath or near inhabited dwellings.
2. The drying of the soil. This point is too often
overlooked. A good system of sewerage not only removes
filth, but dries the soil of all regions which are provided
with sewers. This is proven by the experience of all sew-
ered towns, since the quantity of water discharged from the
final outlet is much greater than the mere household sewage
which is admitted to the system. A well-planned system
provides for this additional flow by means of small under-
drains, which carry the comparatively pure water of the soil
from those se wered districts which are in unusually damp
regions.
The town has now a plan which is extremely valuable,
and your committee would urgently recommend its adop-
tion as an aid to the prosperity, growth, and more than all
to the healthfulness of the town. Fortunately most of the
necessary land for the final disposal of the sewage is already
the town's property and if more is needed it can be pur-
chased or taken for the purpose under the provisions of a
general act of 1890. Your committee has examined the
operation of sewerage systems in other towns of the size of
Wakefield and is entirely satisfied of the possibility of a suc-
cessful solution of the sewage problem of Wakefield. We
present herewith the report of the Engineer, which has been
submitted, in compliance with the Statute of 1888, to the
State Board of Health, and received the approval of that
Board, and their endorsement and approval follows the
Engineer's Report.

ENGINEER'S REPORT.
To Messrs. W. G. Strong, Dr. J. A. O'Leary, G. W. Har-
rington, Dr. S. W. Abbott and W. E. Cowdrey,
Committee on Sewerage, Wakefield, Mass.
Gentlemen : — In pursuance of your directions I have inves-
tigated the subject of sewerage for Wakefield, considered the
possibilities of sewage, disposal by discharging into the Metropol-
itan system, also by filtration at some point on the banks of the
Saugus River ; made surveys covering the entire town ; prepared
a plan of the most feasible and economical system, and have the
following results and recommendations to offer :
The town is divided topographically by a ridge whose summit
is Hart's Hill, into two distinct drainage areas, one lying to the
north, the other to the south, and there is no line from one to the
other over which a gravity sewer could be carried so as to serve
a district that would be large enough to warrant the outlay.
Greenwood and Boynton.
The area to the south comprises the villages of Greenwood
and Boynton and properly belongs within the limits of the
Metropolitan system. As disposal of the sewage of those two
villages into that system would be more economical than to pump
it over the ridge into a system at Wakefield Centre, and as the
Metropolitan system can easily care for so small an additional
population, and as no local filtration area can be utilized that is
advisable, outlet into that system is recommended as the
most feasible for adoption when those villages shall require a
sewerage system. The plan shows a system of sewers designed
to cover the territory mentioned and including the locality
to the south of Crystal Lake and west of the Boston and
Maine Railroad. The main sewer passes down Main street in
Greenwood to Hanson street, receiving the sewage of the eastern
district at the intersection of Greenwood avenue ; then crosses
via Hanson street and private land to Greenwood street in Boyn-
ton, where sewage from that district would be intercepted ;
then by Greenwood street into Melrose and connect with their
principal main in this part of the town, at the intersection of
Franklin and Tremont streets, the Melrose main from the Metro-
politan sewer to this point being large enough, as provided in the
preliminary plans of the State Board of Health, to admit it. An
enlargement would be required from there to the Wakefield line.
Wakefield Centre and the Metropolitan System.
Connecting the area north of Hart's Hill, comprising Wake-
field Centre and the outlying districts with the Metropolitan
system involves pumping the sewage and disposing of it by
discharging into the nearest available sewer of that system. The
main sewers provided for Melrose come nearer to Wakefield than
those for Stoneham, and connection with them offers a special
inducement in that the sewage of Greenwood and Boynton could
be intercepted by the main line from Wakefield. By this method
the sewage of Wakefield Centre would be collected by gravity at a
low point, where the receiving basin and pumping station would
be established, — the valley east of the factory of the Wakefield
Rattan company being the best locality ; favorable points being
situated either north or south of Water street and within 500
feet of the intersection of Water and Melvin streets. From there
the best route for forcing the sewage over the ridge that lies be-
tween Wakefield Centre and Greenwood would be by Water street
to the Salem branch of the B. & M. R. R., then parallel to and
east of the railroad to Main street, and by the latter to the sum-
mit between Charles and Green streets. The main would be laid
to grade, and to this point would be of 12-inch cast-iron pipe,
made necessary by the pressure it would have to sustain, the
maximum head being 65 feet. Beyond the summit the main
would be of vitrified pipe and assume the functions of a gravity
sewer, 12 inches in diameter to the foot of the hill, 15 inches
from there down Main street, through Greenwood to Hanson
8
street ; thence via Hanson street and private property to Linden
street in Boynton, where it would be increased to 18 inches in
diameter and continuing via Linden and Greenwood streets to the
Melrose line : thence in that town as a part of the Melrose sys-
tem via Greenwood, Franklin and Tremont streets, and beyond,
increasing in size, as required by the Melrose sewage, and contin-
uing to Wyoming avenue, where the intercepting sewer of the
Metropolitan system receives the greater part of the sewage of
Melrose, and to which point the main sewer in Melrose from the
Wakefield town line over the route mentioned would have to be
enlarged sufficiently to accommodate the flow from Wakefield in
addition to the flow from Melrose.
The principal advantage of this outlet for the sewage of
Wakefield is that it is carried far away from the town and ulti-
mately out to sea.
The disadvantages arise largely from the expense of the
long main in Wakefield, the cost of increasing the size of the
main sewer for a mile and a half through Melrose, provided an
arrangement could be made with the Melrose authorities for mak-
ing such enlargements ; the expensive pumping machinery that
would be required for a lift of 6o feet as compared with that for
a lift of one fifth the height by another method ; and the annual
payment towards the cost of construction and maintenance of the
entire North Metropolitan system in addition to a similar expense
on the local system. Following is an estimate of cost of the
above method of disposal and the annual expense incurred by the
same :

As construction of the Metropolitan system and the issuing
of bonds began in 1890, the responsibility for interest and sink-
ing fund would doubtless also begin at that time, so that if a
first payment were made in 1895, when the Metropolitan system
is expected to be in operation, the amount for back dues would
be in the vicinity of $10,000, which added to the expenses for
the current year would make the total expenditure for that year
not far from $24,027.56, on the basis that the local system had
been constructed the year before at an estimated cost of $101,-
187.74. Aside from the heavy expense, there should be consid-
ered the fact that the Metropolitan system was not designed to
care for the sewage of Wakefield; bearing upon which the chief
engineer of the Metropolitan Commissioners, in a communication
dated May 16, 1892, says "sewage from Wakefield might be
taken into the Metropolitan sewer near Wyoming avenue in Mel-
rose, and taken care of by the Metropolitan system until say 1904,
but not later. The Commissioners do not feel that they have any
authority to build a sewer from the point above alluded to, to the
Wakefield line ; but you could, perhaps, arrange, if it was worth
while, with the Melrose town authorities to do that."
In view of the facts presented, sewrage disposal for Wake-
field Centre by discharging into the Metropolitan system is not
recommended.
Method of Disposal by Filtration.
Provided a filtration area can be found having sufficient
10
filtering material of the proper quality that can be utilized at
moderate expense and that is located within reasonable distance
of the principal collecting point, this method of disposal is un-
questionably better and more economical for Wakefield Centre
than by chemical precipitation, and in considering the matter very
careful search has been made for such an area.
Within the limits of the town but two localities present favor-
able features ; one situated within the east ward, north of Lowell
street and just east of the Newburyport railroad, on what is termed
Foster's Lane.
The other is on property owned by the town, comprising
meadow and upland lying west of Farm street and north of
Nahant street, and is within a thousand feet of the town farm
buildings.
In utilizing the former, or Foster's Lane area, it would be
necessary to establish receiving basins and a pumping plant at a
low point and pump the sewage up to the filtration beds. As be-
fore mentioned the best place to collect all the sewage would be
within 500 feet of the intersection of Water and Melvin streets.
From there it would be forced through a 12-inch cast-iron main
laid to grade up the valley of the brook ; the best line being par-
allel with and just east of the Newburyport branch of the B. &
M. R. R., until the filtration beds were readied, where the sewage
would be properly distributed.
As the land belongs to private parties it would be necessary
for the town to purchase the required area and also acquire a
right of way for the force main.
In utilizing the latter, or town property area, the main out-
fall at the intersection of Water and Melvin streets would be
continued down Valley street to a point opposite the location of
the stone crusher and thence across the meadow parallel with
the course of the brook to the nearest point of the high land on
the town property. Here the filtration beds would be prepared
by cutting down the bank and spreading it over the meadow for
the whole or a part of the area, the receiving basins and pumping
stations being located at the beds. With this arrangement a road
would have to be built across the meadow on the line of the sewer.
There would probably be little or no expense for land, and while
11
the cost of preparing the filter beds would perhaps be a little more
than at the Foster's Lane area, they would be of a higher effi-
ciency, as the material is of a better quality and can be selected ;
consequently a smaller area would be required.
In order to compare the cost of utilizing the two filtration
areas above mentioned, estimates of the expense for an area of
twenty acres, and of the distinctive features in each case have
been made as follows, the cost of the pipe sewers above the inter-
action of Water and Melvin streets remaining the same in both
cases :

Another advantage gained in the town property location is
that the receiving basins and pumping station would be located
near the filter beds, so that one man could care for both with only
occasional help, whereas if they were separated, additional help
would be required constantly.
Outside of the town limits and within reasonable distance,
but one locality was found that looked favorable for filtration
purposes. That was land near the continuation of Vernon street
into Lynnfield, just beyond the Saugus river. As this would
require half a mile more of force main than the Foster's Lane area
it would be still more expensive.
12
There would doubtless also be some difficulty in obtaining
the land, as it is not unreasonable to suppose that Lynnfield or
Reading might desire it for a similar purpose. Its proximity to
a main highway might create some objection also ; however, there
will doubtless be some objection on the score of proximity what-
ever place is selected, but any thinking person will agree that it
is better to have the sewage of a large community carried rapidly
away to a point where it can be properly oared for, and that is
comparatively remote from any dwellings, rather than 'have it
deposited in the ground in their midst, day after day and year
after year, until the soil and atmosphere are loaded with its efflu-
via. As shown in the experience of places where filtration areas
are in operation, grounds for objection are more imaginary than
real.
Surveys were made in the vicinity of Salem street to ascer-
tain if a small filtration area could not be prepared between Salem
and New Salem streets, that would care for the sewage of the
north ward and east side. There is plenty of excellent material
in the sand bank near by, and the outfall sewer could be brought
from Vernon street at Aborn avenue, across private land and un-
der Salem street and the railroad to the filter beds by gravity.
As this arrangement would still leave many low places not pro-
vided for; and as an objectionable inverted siphon would be
required in order to pass the railroad and Salem street ; and as
the sand is a source of revenue for building purposes, the project
was considered unadvisable.
Surveys and calculations were made to ascertain if it were
not possible and advisable to carry sewage from the larger part
of the town by gravity to filter beds at the town property location,
and pump the rest into the outfall sewer at the nearest and most
convenient point. When the outfall sewer in Water street nears
Melvin street, a possible route to the lower filtration area is
suggested by way of Valley, Hart, Melvin and Nahant streets, or
by Water street, but the irregular course, deep cuts, and large
amount of rock excavation in both routes, render them more ex-
pensive and less practicable than to go from Valley street directly
across the meadow. Bringing a high level sewer then from the
filter beds to the intersection of Water and Melvin streets at as
13
fiat an inclination as admissible would require a fill across the
meadow of 12.5 feet, and in Valley and Water streets of from
4 to 9 feet. This would necessitate filling also portions of Mel-
Yin street and raising seven houses on Valley street.
As this sewer in Water street would be too high to receive
the sewage from the rattan works, which is considerable, and
judging from the offensive odor it imparts to the brook below,
requires immediate attention, it wrould have to be pumped, to-
gether with the sewage from the north ward, east side and low
districts in the valley.
A line was run for an east stde intercepting sewer from the
intersection of Water and Melvin streets up the valley, passing
under the Salem branch of the B. & M. R. R., and to the east of
the Newburyport Branch, then under the latter track near Salem
street to a low point on Vernon street at the foot of Aborn
avenue. To carry sewage from the east side over this line
without pumping would require the sewer to be elevated in an
embankment above the natural surface almost the entire distance.
Salem and New Salem streets would have to be filled at the points
of crossing, or inverted siphons resorted to, and sewage from
Salem street, Fitch court, Vernon street at the bridge, the rattan
factory and other low lying districts would be excluded. In
view of the expense and the partial efficiency of this grade for
that line the grade was lowered to a point that would cause the
sewer to be in moderate excavation and low enough to include all
territory desired, necessitating pumping of this portion of the
sewage into the main outfall at the most convenient point as be-
fore mentioned. Comparing then this combined method of dis-
charging a portion by gravity and a portion by pumping, with the
method wrhereby sewage from all districts is carried by low sewers
clear to the base of the filter beds at the town property location,
and then elevated about thirteen feet to their surface ; it is found
that as there wrould be a pumping plant and receiving basins in
either case it is better to have them at the filter beds where one
man can do the work most of the time, than distant from them
and possibly nearer the town than desirable. In the former case
the pumping plant and basins would be smaller and less expensive,
as less sewage would be handled, but as it would care for the
14
sewage of the rattan works which is considerable, the difference
in cost would not be great and is more than offset by the heavy
expense for filling and for damages that would be incurred on
the line of the high level sewer.
The expense for pumping would be comparatively small in
either case as the lift is light and centrifugal pumping machinery
could be used to advantage. Comparing the relative expense of
the distinctive features in each case, there follows :

Summary.
After careful consideration of the various methods and pro-
jects presented, it is found that to carry all the sewage by low
sewers that will best serve all districts, to the town property
location, and there elevate it to filter beds prepared to receive it,
is the most satisfactory and economical method of sewage disposal
15
for the portion of Wakefield lying north of Hart's Hill ridge, and
is therefore recommended, as shown on the plan submitted with
this report and as outlined below.
System Proposed.
The system of street sewers is designed to carry house
wastes only ; no storm or ground water is to be admitted. The
outfall is to be eighteen inches in diameter and starts at the
receiving basins, located at the foot or east end of the meadow at
the town property location, where the filter beds will be prepared.
From there it crosses the meadow through a road built for the
purpose that will be fifteen feet wide on top and about five feet
high, and ending at Valley street, opposite land owned by the
town, which will furnish material free for filling. When excava-
ting tliis material it could be done so as to uncover ledge for the
stonecrusher. The main sewer continues in Valley street to the
intersection of Water and Melvin streets, where it receives the
discharge of the 12-inch east side intercepting sewer and the
L 2 -inch main in Water street; thence the main passes up Water
and West Water streets to Railroad street; thence by Railroad
street to Albion street, and by Albion to Gould street, at which
point it divides into two 10-inch sewers, one continuing in Albion
to Byron street, the other in Gould street to Cedar street. A
10-inch sewer starts from Albion street and passes through Rail-
road street to Church street. A 10-inch sewer also starts from
Water street, just east of the Salem branch of the B. & M. R. R.,
and runs parallel with the railroad to Main street. An 8-inch
sewer starts from Water street, just west of Crescent street, and
passes up the valley containing the Centre brook to Crescent
street. This sewer and the sub-drain that is designed to go with
it will do away with the filthy brook that is now there, and whose
present condition is a source of deep annoyance to near residents
and an open menace to the entire community. This uncovered
and irregular brook has for a long time discharged into the stag-
nant waters of the Centre pond, where deposits have collected in
the shallow water and the pond has become little better than an
open cesspool. A decided benefit would result from filling the
entire pond excepting a course for the brook on the east side.
16
As a further sanitary measure, but not as a part of the sewerage
system, there should be a 12-inch pipe drain laid from the main
brook in Water street up the same valley in the centre to the up-
per end, to carry off storm water from the entire district and do
away with the possibility of a surface brook at any time.
Radiating from the main arteries, sewers eight and six inches
in diameter have been provided for most of the streets, whether
built upon or not, so that as extensions are made to the system
they will form a proper part of the whole ; those most needed to
be built at first, and then extended as the growth of the town re-
quires it.
Lowering the ground water by the sub-drainage that is provi-
ded, will prove a great boon in many localities. The drain will
discharge into the brook at Melvin street, will pass up Water,
Railroad and Albion streets, will extend to Richardson and Ben-
nett streets, will pass up the centre valley into Crescent street and
extend up Main street to Salem street and up Park street, and
extensions can be made as desired.
It is stated that the results from the sub-drainage in connec-
tion with the Newton sewerage svstem is commended in certain
localities more than the sewers themselves, for the reason that the
ground water is lowered to such a beneficial extent. In another
place land was known lo double in value in consequence of the
land being drained by construction of the sewers alone.
Both lakes will be protected from sewage contamination by
sewers that are provided in the streets bordering them, this being
especially necessary in the case of Crystal Lake from which the
public water supply is taken. Private drains that now discharge
directly into Lake (^uannapowitt and pollute its waters could be
done away with.
The receiving basins and pumping plant will be located at
the filter beds. The basins will be large enough to accommodate
the night flow, and thus avoid the necessity for continuous pump-
ing, will be built in the ground and covered, and have a capacity
of 400,000 gallons.
The pumping station will be of brick and will accommodate
two pumps and two boilers. The machinery will consist of two
boilers and at first one pump, of the centrifugal pattern, having
17
a capacity of 1250 gallons a minute or. 750,000 gallons in ten
hours.
The filter beds will be prepared by cutting down the bank to
the proper elevation and spreading the sand on the meadow, or
by cutting down the bank for a portion and preparing others at a
higher level or on the natural surface, as a detail study in the
preparation of working plans shows to be most desirable; an
economical use of the filtration material at first being advisable.
The material is of excellent quality as shown by test pits, one
being dug sixteen feet deep near the middle of the bank ; only
one third of the material now owned by the town being required
for some time. The surface of the filter beds will average about
thirteen feet above the water in the basins. Six acres of area
being sufficient at first. Following is an estimate of cost :

The above estimate of annual expense is for comparison with
a similar one for a system discharging into the Metropolitan sew-
ers, but the town will doubtless adopt a method of apportioning
the cost whereby the abutters share the expense, as is customary,
say each side of the street paying a third and the town the re-
maining third, or some other equable arrangement; then the annual
expense, as far as the town is concerned, would be lessened to
that extent, making by the arrangement suggested the annual
appropriation amount to $3,961.81.
Submitted with this report is a plan of the system proposed,
including profiles of the outfall and east side intercepting sewers.

OFFICIAL ENDORSEMENT OF STATE BOARD
OF HEALTH.
Office of State Board of Health.
13 Beacon St., Boston, Oct. 7, 1892.
To the Committee on Seiverage of the Town of Wakefield,
Gentlemen: — In response to your application of August 29,
1892, accompanied by a plan for the sewerage of your town and
asking the advice of the State Board of Health in regard thereto,
the Board has caused investigations to be made, has carefully
considered the plan submitted and herewith presents its reply.
19
It is proposed by this plan to. collect the sewage of all parts
of the town by means of a system of pipe sewers from which
storm water is to be excluded, and these sewers are arranged in
two independent systems, one for the southerly part of the town,
including the villages of Greenwood and Boynton, and the
other for the main village. The one for the southerly part of the
town is planned to connect with the Melrose sewers and through
them with the Metropolitan System. The other provides for the
disposal of the sewage by intermittent filtration upon sandy land
in the vicinity of the town almshouse.
The disposal of the sewage of the southerly part of the town
into the Metropolitan System is the best method that can be
adopted for this district, provided the consent of the proper
authorities can be obtained.
The disposal of sewage of the main village by intermittent
lilt ration through a sufficient area of porous land is also the best
available method of disposing of the sewage- of this portion of
the town.
With regard to the best place for filtering the sewage, your
engineer has shown in his report that the proposed disposal area
has a decided advantage in regard both to the cost of reaching it
with the sewage and to the cost of maintenance, over any other
available area. The character of the land at this place is also of
excellent quality for filtration, so that on the whole these advan-
tages may be said to outweigh the disadvantages that the tract
contains two small houses and a schoolhouse and is not very far
from settled portions of the town.
With regard to the amount of land required in the begin-
ning for purifying the sewage, much will depend upon the extent to
which ground water is excluded from the sewers. In several in-
stances towns have had a much larger amount of sewage to pump or
purify than was expected, owing to the entrance of ground water,
notwithstanding all precautions taken to make the joints of the
pipe sewers water tight. The only practicable remedy for this
trouble, so far as now known, is to provide underdrains of suita-
ble size to take away the ground water of those districts where
the sewers are below the water level and discharge this water into,
such streams as are most available. Even if the amount of
20
ground water is restricted as far as practicable the Board is of
opinion that not less than six acres should be prepared for filter-
ing the sewage in the beginning, with provision for increase in a
few years.
The best method of preparing the filtration area can hardly
be determined without a careful detailed study. If beds are pre-
pared by filling upon the adjacent swamp their surface should be
raised not less than six feet above the present water level in the
brook, and the underdrains should be placed near enough together
so that when the sewage is applied to the beds the water in the
ground will always remain drained down to at least five feet be-
low the surface. Beds prepared by excavating the higher land
should have their surface left eight or preferably ten feet higher
than the present level of the brook and would not need as much
underdrainage as beds prepared by filling upon the swamp, and
would more efficiently purify the sewage. If the town should
acquire a sufficient amount of land a portion or the whole of the
filter beds might be prepared at a smaller cost upon the top of
the flat land than by the plan of excavating and filling, as pro-
posed by the plan submitted. As before stated, however, the
best method to adopt will require a detailed study, which should
precede actual construction, and the Board will give further ad-
vice as to the preparation of the disposal area at such time, if so
desired.
The present plan for collecting the sewage and bringing it to
the filtration area appears to have been carefully designed and to
be comprehensive and well adapted to the wants of the town.
By order of the Board,
H. P. WALCOTT, Chairman.

Report.
"Acting under Article 26 of the last annual town warrant, the
town chose a committee consisting of W. G. Strong, Henry
Davis and I. F. Eaton, to consider the subject matter of said
article, which was : 'To see if the town would raise and appro-
priate money to carry out the orders of the County Commis-
sioners relative to the widening of Gould street.'
Your committee have attended to their duty, and beg leave to
report. The committee organized by the choice of W. G.
Strong, chairman, and have viewed the new bounds of said
street, as located by the County Commissioners, and have care-
fully considered the whole matter of widening and straightening
said street, to conform to the orders of the County Commis-
sioners. The committee found the street in a very bad condi-
tion, hardly safe for public travel. The County Commission has
ordered a very expensive change, in the widening and straighten-
ing of Gould street, which order must be complied with before
the close of 1893. Your committee does not think it advisable
for the town to comply with the orders fully this year, as our
appropriations for highways are already very large ; but would
26
recommend that the town do part of the work this year, and a
part next year, commencing at the east end of the proposed
change of lines, and working westward to completion as far as
Converse street, and as much farther as the appropriation will
allow ; and taking care that the whole street be made safe for
public travel, and for the payment of said work, your committee
would recommend that the town appropriate $i,oco, to be
expended under the direction of the Road Commissioneis."

report :
Report.
The committee appointed March 17, 1892 "To investigate as
to the necessity of enlarging the Franklin street school house,"
have attended to the duties assigned them, and beg leave to
report as follows :
Your committee believes the town should furnish suitable
accommodations for all children of school age. It is evident
30 -' .
to us that in the near future one or more new school houses will
be needed in localities now rapidly filling up. It seems to us
possible that district limits may be changed so as to relieve for
the present, the over-crowded condition of the Franklin street
schools. Should the future growth of the district be as great as-
the recent past, the proposed addition would, in our opinion,
prove inadequate and too expensive for the advantage gained.
We therefor think it inexpedient to enlarge the present building.

ADJOURNED TOWN MEETING, NOV. 14, 1892.
The meeting was called to order by the Moderator.
Art. 2. To see if the town will appropriate the sum of fifteen
hundred dollars for the purchase of land and the erection
thereon of a hose house, in that part of Wakefield called
Greenwood, the appropriation to be expended under the
direction of the Selectmen, Engineers of the Fire Department
and President of the Greenwood Improvement Association, or
what they will do about it.
Voted. $1,500, as called for, to be expended as above indicated.
A motion to reconsider the vote was lost.
Art. 3. To hear and act upon the report of the committee appointed
April 13, 1 89 1, under Article 25 of the annual to\vn warrant,
relative to the obtaining of land for a new burying ground,
appropriating money therefor, or what they will do in relation
thereto.
41
The committee reported as follows :
The committee to whom was referred at the annual Town
Meeting held April 13, 1891, Articles 3 and 4 in the Warrant for the
Town Meeting, held August 4, 1890, with instructions to advertise
for proposals for land for a new burial ground, herewith submit their
report as follows ;
"The articles referred to the Committee are as follows : Article
3 : To see if the town will vote to prohibit the further use of the old
Burial Ground for burial purposes, except the use of the Town tomb
for temporary deposit, or what they will do in relation thereto.
Article 4 : To see if the town will choose a committee to investigate
and report upon the best location for new burial grounds, or what
they will do in the premises.
The committee find that on April 4, 1887, the town voted that the
westerly portion of the Old Burying Ground be not used hereafter
for burial purposes. We also find the easterly portion of the said
burying ground has no vacant lots, so that the town is now without a
burial ground and needs to take action to provide one in accordance
with the law of Section 9, Chapter 82 of the Public Statutes, which is
as follows :
Each town and city shall provide one or more suitable places for
the interment of persons dying within its limits.
Therefore, in regard to Article 3, your committee recommend that
the town prohibit further burials in the Old Burial Ground on Church
street, with the exception of the use of the tomb, as a temporary
deposit, and also those who have tombs and vacant lots which have
already been granted to them.
In regard to Article 4, as to a location for the establishment of a
new burial ground, your committee advertised, as instructed, for pro-
posals for land for a new burial ground and received only proposals
for three lots — one suitable lot of 4 acres on Salem street for $900,
which has since been sold ; one of some 10 acres of back land in rear
of New Salem street, and belonging to the Salem branch of the B. &
M. R. R., for $2,000, which has also since been sold, and a lot of 5
or 6 acres on the easterly side of Wiley street, for $1,200.
But the committee would recommend that the town make use of
land that they now own on Nahant street, now used only as a pasture.
There are about 17 or 18 acres in the whole pasture, about one-half
of which, the easterly side, 8 or 9 acres, is more suitable for the pur-
42
pose than any lot offered, and would recommend that the same be
laid out in lots for burial purposes, as provided in Chapter 264 of the
Legislative Acts of the year 1890; to be sold to the citizens of
this town at a price that shall cover their proportional cost of land
and expenses attending the laying out of lots, grading and other
necessary expenses."

SELECTMEN'S REPORT.
To the Citizens of Wakefield:
The Selectmen beg to submit their annual report and for a
detailed statement of the financial and ordinary affairs of the
town respectfully refer to the reports of the Treasurer, Aud-
itor, and other officers of the town.
BOYNTONVILLE.
At the time of submitting the iast annual report a petition
was pending before the Legislature of the Commonwealth
vitally affecting the autonomy of the town. Some of the
citizens living in the southern part of the town, believing it
to be for their interest to become annexed to Melrose, had
presented their petition to the General Court asking that
they might be set off from Wakefield and annexed to that
town. This petition contemplated depriving this town of
some three hundred acres of its territory and of many
families. Upon a protracted hearing, at which one of the
endeavors was to ascertain the cause of their dissatisfaction,
and after a view of the premises by the Committee of the
Legislature, their petition was referred to the next Legisla-
ture, which is at the present time in session. After the
decision was rendered, the Selectmen invited the citizens of
Boyntonville and vicinity to meet the officers of the town
and see if any grievances which they had could be remedied.
Accordingly, a large number of the citizens of Boyntonville
met the Selectmen and other officers of the town at the
Selectmen's room, where a lengthy and pleasant interview
was had. They stated such matters as they thought the town
should attend to in their section, the most important of
which were acceded to on the part of the officers of the town
73
and subsequently carried out, and as wo were told, to their
entire satisfaction.
This winter another petition has been presented to the
Legislature by others in that part of the town for a like pur-
pose, which does not contemplate taking so large a strip of
territory nor so many families.
At the time of writing this report, no hearing has been had
upon this petition. A committee of the town has the matter
in charge.
STREET LIGHTS.
Under the instruction of the town a contract was entered
into with the Globe Gas Light Company to light a certain
number of lamps during the year. For a short time these
lights gave good satisfaction, being evidently an improve-
ment upon the gas lights furnished the year before. Soon,
however, the lighting power of these lamps apparently
diminished and they failed to burn in some instances the
contracted number of hours. The attention of the company
was called to these facts by notice and refusal to pay their
bills. Later in the season these defects were largely reme-
died.
It will be for the town to determine whether this method
of street lighting shall be continued or not another year.
STREET RAILWAY.
Early in the season the Wakefield and Stoneham Street '
Railway Company presented its petition to the Selectmen for
leave to lay its tracks on Main street from the postoffice to
the Melrose line and on Water street from Main street to the
Saugus line. Notice of a public hearing was given and a
hearing had, at which a large number of the leading citizens
of the towns were present. The company explained their
plans and described the kind of plant (including tracks)
which it proposed to operate. There was no opposition
The Selectmen took the matter under advisement and finally
granted the prayer of the petitioner as follows :
74
July 11, 1892.
Town of Wakefield, in Board of Selectmen:
Iii the matter of the petition of the Wakefield and Stone-
ham Street Railroad Company for leave to extend its tracks
on Main street from Albion street. Wakefield, to the line of
the town of Melrose, and from said Main street to the line of
the town of Saugus on Water street,
Upon the foregoing petition after proof of notice as or-
dered, and a hearing thereon had, this 11th day of July,
A. D. 1892, it was voted by the Selectmen as follows :
That said Railroad company be and hereby are granted the.
privilege of extending its tracks on Main street, in said
Wakefield, from Albion street to the line of the town of
Melrose, and on Water street in said Wakefield from said
Main street to the line of the town of Saugus, and of erecting
poles and running wires in connection therewith for the pur-
pose of constructing and operating an electric railroad as
prayed for. The said privilege is granted subject to the laws
of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts now in force, or which
may be hereafter enacted relative thereto and subject to any
use to which the town of Wakefield, as a municipality, may
wish to put said streets, and also subject to the rights of the
Wakefield Water Company, and the Citizens' Gas Light Com-
pany of Reading, South Reading and Stoneham in said
streets.
Said company shall run its tracks in the middle of Main
street from Albion to Water street, and on the easterly side
of Main street from Water to Green street, and on the
westerly side of said Main street from Green street to the
line of the town of Melrose, and on the northerly side of
Water street from Lincoln street to the line of the town of
Saugus.
Said company shall complete its road to Melrose line and
have the same in operation on or before .Jan. 1, 181)3, and to
Saugus line on or before eian. 1, 1894. In case of failure to
complete said road and operate the same within the time
named this grant shall become void and of no effect.
to
Suid company shtill pave Avith square blocks of granite the
line of their tracks at a proper width from the westerly line
of Main street to a point opposite the westerly side of the
Miller Piano Factory, and down Main street to a point oppo-
site the northerly side of Cutler Bros.' store, and also the
crossing of Main street, near Green street, and all streets or
parts of streets which have been or may hereafter be macad-
amized. The width of sidewalk and gutters and the exact
location of said tracks, shall be determined by the Road
Commissioners of the town of Wakefield.
Said company shall construct, maintain and keep that por-
tion of said highway used by it, reasonably safe for travel,
and at all times in such condition as the authorities of Wake-
field having charge of the highways, shall direct.
Said company shall also, at its own expense, defend all
suits brought against said town for, or on account of any
injury to persons or property, on account of any alleged
defect in said highway caused by said company, and hold
said town harmless therefor, and shall also hold the town
harmless from any injury occasioned to the fire alarm system
of the town by said company.
In witness thereof the Selectmen of said town have here-
unto set their hands this 11th day of July, A. D. 1892.
S. K. HAMILTON,
WILLIAM B. DANIEL,
SILAS W. FLINT,
Selectmen of Wakefield.
Town Clerk's Office, Wakefield, July 25, 18^2.
Acceptance of the above named location received and
placed on file in this office at 8 o'clock and five minutes A. M.
Charles F. Hartshorn e, Town Clerk.
This road has been completed and cars are running nearly
to the Melrose line, and we have assurance that early in the
present year the tracks will be laid to connect with the East
Middlesex road at Melrose and with the road running to*
76
I/ynn. The operation of this road will prove a comfort and
convenience to a large portion of our people.
TELEPHONE SERVICE.
During the year the New England Telephone Company
have been granted slight additional rights in our streets with
a view of extending and improving the telephone service in
the town, which has become seriously interfered with by the
railway and electric light service.
NEW BUILDINGS.
The year has witnessed the completion and occupation of
the Lincoln School Building on Academy Hill. It fills a
much needed place in the work of the schools, and its use
demonstrates the wisdom of its plan and construction.
An ornament to the town, it reflects groat credit upon the
committee in charge of its construction, the architects, and
the builders.
The Engine House has been' substantially completed and
partially occupied. The Hose House at Greenwood author-
ized by the town has been completed and is now in use.
CLAIMS AGAINST THE TOWN.
At the time of the last annual report the suit of Catherine
Kelleher was pending against the town to recover for
injuries received on account of a defective way. The alleged
defect consisted in an improper accumulation of ice and
snow on Main street in front of the factory of Messrs.
Thomas Emerson's Sons. The case was prepared for trial
and about to be presented to the jury when negotiations for
a settlement were commenced, which resulted in the settle^
ment of the case upon the payment of one hundred and
twenty-five dollars.
The case of Wiley vs. Xiles and Merrill, which was a suit
against the Chief of Police and one of the police officers for
an assault and false imprisonment was also pending. The
acts constituting the alleged assault and false imprisonment
i 4
were committed by these officers in the discharge of their
duty and under the express direction of the former chairman
of the Selectmen. The Selectmen of last year very properly
assumed the defense of the action.
This case was also prepared and reached for trial when it
was disposed of by an entry of "neither party.'' The
expense to the town was the payment of its own attorney.
The claim of Dr. Chase of Woburn for injuries received
to himself and property by reason of a defect in Prospect
street was referred to the Selectmen with power to act, and
was settled by the payment of two hundred dollars.
There are now pending in court two cases against the
town ; one the claim of Mr. Albert W. Merrow of Stoneham
for injuries received on account of a lack of suitable railing
on the bridge on Broadway. The other is the claim of the
trustees of the estate of Bnrrage Yale for compensation for
hind taken to widen Church street. • The County Commis-
sioners made no award in their decree and the trustees made
application to the town for compensation. The town re-
ferred this matter to the Selectmen, who, after making a
personal examination of the premises and obtaining the
opinion of citizens of the town well versed in the value of
real property, offered the trustees the sum of six hundred
and fifty dollars to cover the damages occasioned by taking
their land for the highway and also for a very small strip of
land lying between the land so taken and other land belong-
ing to the town. This offer was refused and a petition has
been filed in the Superior Court for a jury to assess the
damages.
PERAMBULATION OF TOWTN LINE.
Upon notice from the Selectmen of Reading the line
between that town and Wakefield has been perambulated
and the boundary marks found to be in good condition,
except the one at the junction of Summer avenue and Brook
street, at which point a new monument has been placed.
A new monument has also been placed on the line between
78
this town and Lynnfield, in place of the one which had been
destroyed.
NICHOLS FUND.
From this fund in accordance with its terms there has been
paid the sum of forty dollars, as follows:
Ernest F. Hill, $10 00
Thomas M. S. Reynolds, ... 10 00
Ernest Albert Tyler, . . . 10 00
E. S. Mansfield, .... 10 00
DEATH OF ALFRED H. GOODWIN.
At the last annual meeting Alfred H. Goodwin was elected
one of the Town Auditors, and by arrangement with the
other two at once assumed the active duties of that position,
which he discharged with conspicuous fidelity and ability to
the time when he was stricken with the disease which shortly
proved fatal. Mr. Goodwin possessed a rare grasp of
municipal affairs for one of his years, and quickly compre-
hended the duties of his position in general and detail. By
his business methods, courteous bearing and warm heart he
readily won the respect and affection of those with whom he
was brought in contact. His death was a distinct loss to the
town.
Mr. W. \Y. Taft, one of the Auditors of last year, con-
sented to complete Mr. Goodwin's unfinished work, and was
appointed Auditor in his stead by the Selectmen.
8WEET8EK LECTURES.
The Selectmen invited Mr. .J. C Ilartshorue to again take
charge of these lectures, feeling that no one in town could
so satisfactorily discharge this duty as he, with his many
years' experience. Hut he declined and the Selectmen
undertook the work themselves. The public have heard the
lectures and the Treasurer's report shows the financial
result.

ELLEN S. ROGERS,
Treasurer.
The method of and the persons to whom this distribution
has been made are in a measure known to us, and we
heartily commend the work.
THE FUTURE.
The tax rate has reached a point which demands immediate
consideration and reduction. No town can have that
measure of growth and prosperity to which it is entitled
with a tax rate higher than that of towns in its immediate
vicinity similarly situated. A tax of $18.50 on every $1000
of taxable property in town is too liigh for this latitude.
We present the following table as an object lesson to the
intelligent voters of the town, with the hope that this and
the following tables and statements will awaken the people
to the condition of affairs and lead them to seek and apply
the remedy.

The above shows the rate of taxation for the last ten
years in thirty-seven cities and towns in close proximity to
us and that we stand second highest in the list the past year.
Whether the town is grossly reckless in its appropriations,
or grossly careless in expending the money when appropri-
ated, or the assessors fail to find all the taxable property,
this showing surely is not creditable to the town especially
in the absence of any unusual or extraordinary condition of
affairs.
It challenges at once the criticism of every inhabitant and
81
of every pi
2i'son proposin
£ to become a re
sident or an inves-
tor here.

Comparing the two tables they show an increase of five
dollar- on every thousand of assessed valuation in the face
of an increased valuation during the same time of nearly
fifty per cent.
To account for this startling state of affairs in detail in-
volvcs an amount of labor which Ave are unable to give at
the present time; but a comparison of the expenses in some
of the leading departments for the last few years affords
data which is useful in further inquiry. We do not make
this comparison for the purpose of criticising any depart-
ment, or any person who has held any official position. We
do it only to afford information to guide the town in further
action. The support of the pool has increased over one
thousand dollars in eight years, as the following figures

The Wakefield Water Company is bound by its contract
with the town to furnish the water and sufficient power to
give adequate fire protection on the line of its pipes and with
that contract carried out the town ought not to be put to
further expense for power.
The above are examples which show how expenditures
83
have gradually crept up to the present amount and they are
but examples of the expenditures in other departments.
Unquestionably these can be reduced in some instances
materially, but we are firmly of the opinion that any reason-
able reduction will not cure the evil <£f which we now com-
plain and bring our tax rate where it legitimately belongs.
The root of the difficulty in our judgment is in the assess-
ment. Too much of the taxable property in the town es-
capes the burden which the law puts upon it, and which in
justice to the remainder it ought to bear. Too many people
are willing that others should pay for the blessings of gov-
ernment which they enjoy. A most thorough and complete
overhauling of our valuation lists is demanded by every
consideration of justice and policy. There is no more im-
portant office in the town government than that of Assessor ;
none where the temptation to partiality or liability to error
is greater, or of which criticism is more common or unjust;
and no Board of Assessors can or will do their full duty
under the law unless they have some adequate compensation
and are supported by a determined public opinion. Even
then all their ingenuity will be taxed and they will be com-
pelled to avail themselves of the entire machinery of the
law.
The first necessary step to be taken after the election of
men ot the right mettle and fixing suitable compensation, is
to make provisions for a complete and perfect survey of the
town to the end that every foot of the territory within our
borders should be assessed, and that every parcel of land
should be examined and approved by experts who are famil-
iar with land values and who are able to fix the fair market
value upon every parcel.
This work cannot be done in a single year, but in a few
years it could be completed, and, judging by results in some
other towns in the state, would prove a wonderfully paying
investment.
84
TAXES UPON PERSONAL ESTATES.
It is apparent that a very large amount of personal prop-
erty escapes taxation. The valuation of the personal prop-
erty in town for the ^ear 1892 was $679,945, an absurdity
upon the face of it. Death in a single instance recently un-
covered over $50,000 of personal property which for years
had escaped taxation ; and we are entirely confident that
there are many similar cases in town and we fear nothing
but the process of dooming will reveal tnem.
With an aroused public sentiment it will not be long be-
fore Wakefield can have a respectable tax rate.
NEW STREETS.
With the tide of growth which is fast reaching Wakefield
a definite and distinct policy ought to be established in rela-
tion to the location and acceptance of new streets. It is for
our own safety and in the interest of those; who come to
our town to improve its waste places that some policy which
all may understand should be adopted. It is a matter too
important to be left to be passed upon by a changing and
changeable board of town officers whose interest or sympathy
may be directed in favor of or against any one enterprise,
or over whom the influence of friends or the solicitations of
interested parties may have weight.
Ways are to be laid where public convenience and neces-
sity require, and when there is no public there should be no
way ; but when there is a small public to be accommodated
and prospectively a larger one, the convenience of accepted
streets should be furnished at such time as the circumstances
would fairly warrant, always remembering that every addi-
tion to the taxable property ^>f the town is beneficial, and
on the other hand that unoccupied lands arc not purchased y
laid out into lots, and buildings erected thereon purely as a
matter of philanthropy. It should be the policy of the town
to welcome every improvement and give it such municipal
aid as a sense of justice and fairness would sanction.
85
Perhaps a large committee of the enterprising citizens of
the town might be appointed, who would consider this im-
portant question in a sensible and business like way, and aid
the town in establishing such a policy as is here outlined.
WATER.
The contract with the Wakefield Water Company for
water for fire purposes will expire on the first day of Decem-
ber, 1893, and it will be necessary for the town to take
some action looking toward a new contract.
SEWERAGE.
The plan for disposing of our sewerage presented by the
committee failed to meet the approbation of the town when
presented for consideration. In fact, the indications of
fierce opposition were numerous and apparent. The whole
question is full of difficulty.
The valley of the Saugus river is our natural course of
drainage, the ocean is the natural receptacle, and to a certain
extent the Saugus river its natural vehicle of transportation.
Whatever natural rights we ever had to this means of
transportation have been taken from us by the city of Lynn
upon her cry that she needed water more than we needed
sewerage transportation — and every consideration for health
•demands that her water supply should not be contaminated
by our sewerage. But if she deprives us in any sense of
our natural rights, are we not entitled to corresponding
compensation? In other words, is not the true solution of
our sewerage question the organization of a sewerage dis-
trict similar to the Metropolitan Sewerage District, com-
prising those towns and cities within this and contiguous
water sheds and thus draining this section of the state? Of
this expense Lynn should bear a large portion. She is
reaching out today and asking the Legislature to give her
all the water of Saugus river and its tributaries thus coming
into our territory and asking to be allowed to take that
86
which by every consideration of justice and humanity be-
longs to us. We feel that Lynn and other cities and towns
will be willing to consider this matter in a broad and com-
prehensive manner.

The causes of these fires are divided about equally between sharks
from railroad engines, children, gunners, accidents, incendiarism and
reckless setting of fires by people on their own land, which was
allowed to run upon the land of others.
As an instance of the above, the cost of fires set upon the land of
one man, was over fifty dollars.
The number of fires the past year exceeds those of any year since
the introduction of this system of protection against fire.
Town fire appliances in charge of the Forest Firewards : 84 John-
son pumps, 60 balloon valves for pumps, 6 top valves, 6 discharge
pipes, 6 tips, 5 dozen sprinkler nozzles, 125 2-gallon cans, 50 buckets
and 5 water scoops.

ENGINEEBS' bepobt.
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen :
GENTLEMEN, — The Board of Engineers herewith present the fol-
lowing as their annual report of the Fire Department for the year
ending Jan. 31, giving in detail the total number of alarms and fires,
with their loss and insurance paid as near as can be ascertained, to-
gether with such other information as in our judgment at this time
seems appropriate.
FORCE OF THE DEPARTMENT.
By vote of the Town at the last annual town meeting the Volun-
teer Hose Co. was made a part of the regular Department, so that
the force of the Department consists, at this time, of a total of 56
men, divided as follows : One chief and two assistant engineers,
one Steam Fire Engine Co., twelve men, one Hook and Ladder Co.,
fifteen men, one Chemical Co., six men, two Hose companies, ten
men each.
There is also one Volunteer Hose Co. at Greenwood.
We have the past year reduced the number of the Chemical Co.
from ten to six men, also the Steamer Co. from thirteen to twelve
men, without any apparent disadvantage to either company.
HOSE.
There is in the service 4100 feet of cotton hose in good condition,
2950 feet on the several carriages and 1150 feet in reserve.
APPARATUS.
The apparatus remains the same as last year. The new Ladder
truck voted for by the town during the past year has been contracted
for and is ready for delivery, and when the new engine house is com-
pleted will be put in service and will be a valuable addition to the
town's service.
The Hose carriage attached to the Steamer Co. is in a very unre-
liable and dangerous condition. It is completely worn out and in
our opinion not worth repairing. It is liable to break down at any
time and perhaps at just the time when most needed. We would.
90
earnestly recommend a new Hose wagon, as this piece of apparatus
is too important to be in its present condition.
FIKES AND ALARMS.
We have had during the past year on several occasions what at
first threatened to be serious conflagrations, but by their early dis-
covery, prompt arrival and hard work by our Department, they were
fortunately checked before making much headway.

FIRE ALARM.
The fire alarm was during the past year extended to the west part
of the town and a box located on West Chestnut street, near the en-
trance of Wakefield park. We renew the recommendation of former
Boards to locate a box at the corner of Vernon and Salem streets,
also one at the corner of Traverse and Bennett streets. The follow-
ing is the location of boxes : —
6, Woodville, opposite Poor Farm.
12, Greenwood.
13, Boyntonville.
15, Junction, near Block & Cate's.
23, Hamilton School.
26, West Chestnut street, near entrance to Wakefield Park.
27, Railroad street, corner Church.
31, Rattan Company's Office.
92
35, Post Office.
37, Corner Main and Salem streets.
41, North Ward.
54, East Ward.
RECOMMENDATIONS.
We desire at this time to call your attention to that part of the
town west of the Boston & Maine Road, that is without any fire pro-
tection in its immediate locality. It is a section which is rapidly
being built up, more so, perhaps, than any other part of the town.
We would recommend the transfering of one of the Hose companies
now in the centre of the town, to that locality.
By reference to the expenditures of the Department it will be seen
that the expense for horse hire is getting to be quite an item. As
there are several towns in the state of about our size, who own their
own horses for fire and road departments to advantage, we see no
reason why we could not do the same. As this question is getting to
be a serious one, we are in hopes the town will, in the near future,
give it their serious consideration.
CONCLUSION.
We sincerely return our thanks to the Honorable Board of Select-
men for their hearty co-operation at all times, to Chief of Police
Vannah and the officers under his command for the assistance they
have rendered us, to each officer and member of the Department,
for their prompt and efficient manner in discharging the duty belong-
ing to them, we are especially indebted, and to all others who have
rendered us assistance we return our heart-felt thanks.

Board of Health Report.
The Health Department of the town for the past year has been
carefully managed and we are happy to say that there is nothing dis-
agreeable to report. The health of the community has been up to
its average and the death rate is much lower than last year.
CONTAGIOUS DISEASES.
There has been no severe run of contagious disease and those that
have occurred have been of a mild character. The list of conta-
gious diseases from Feb. i, 1892, to Feb. 1, 1893, is as follows : —
Diphtheria, 5 ; Scarlet Fever, 46 ; Measles, 37; Typhoid Fever,
14. Many of the cases of Scarlet Fever have been reported during
January of this year, there being 25 reported for that month. We
do not anticipate a continuance of it, and have no reason to fear an
epidemic. The usual number of cases of Typhoid Fever is 5 or 6
for the whole year, and to have 14 reported indicates that the cause
of the epidemic of 1891 still exists.
The appearance of contagious disease in a community fills the
souls of parents with fear and trembling and the anxiety that attends
its presence causes many a sleepless night among householders.
There is good cause for alarm too, for sad experience has taught that
no epidemic comes without the black mark of mourning being left on
some house and a vacancy made that can never be filled.
The history of contagious disease is the history of sorrow, incon-
venience and expense. This is all known and understood by the
people and yet we have year after year a run of some kind of disease
that is unnecessary and preventable. It will seem to most people a
bold statement to say that epidemics of Scarlet Fever, Measles, etc.,
are as avoidable and uncalled for as a run of Asiatic Cholera, but it
is nevertheless true. Were the same precautions taken to prevent
contagion in the former as are taken in the latter, we would be sub-
ject to it just as unfrequently. The diminution in the number and
severity of cases at present compared with those in the past will
prove this, and it will be seen more clearly in the future when the
94
public are educated to a more active knowledge of contagion. The
principal reason for the spread of these diseases is the carelessness
and indifference of those who have charge of the sick person, and
often the neglect to use even ordinary means to prevent conveying
the disease germs to the well.
Where a case of contagious disease occurs the attending physician
is always careful to give instructions as to isolation, disinfection, etc.,
the health authorities placard the house to warn the public o/ the
danger, and then it is expected that the family of the patient will
simply follow the instructions given and use ordinary care and judg-
ment, consulting the medical attendant or health officials when in
doubt.
The physician cannot be with his patient all the time neither
should the health officer have to be present continually to see that
the regulations are carried out ; so the responsibility for the spread
of the disease must and does fall upon those who have charge of the
sick person.

HEALTH INSPECTOR.
During the summer it was thought best to determine the exact
sanitary condition of the town, so as to see how much voluntary at-
tention was paid by the people to our health regulations.
95
Accordingly, in August we appointed Mr. O. G. Sanborn to make
a tour of the town, to visit and inspect dwellings and premises, to
determine all sources of nuisances, keep a. record of the same, and
report daily to the health officer.
This was in addition to the regular work performed by Mr. Vannah
and the inspection was made during the hottest time of the year,
when there was most danger from nuisances.
After our experience with Typhoid Fever last year we desired if
possible to prevent a return of the disease during the fall months of
the year, and ordered the Inspector to be very strict and thorough in
his work, and to see that every nuisance or possible cause of sickness
was immediately abated. The results showed the value of the work
done and we would recommend that it be repeated next year. The
town as a whole was found to be in a very fair condition and it was
evident that an effort was being made to comply with our rules and
to keep premises in a proper sanitary state. Still there were places
that Were no credit to the owners and many of them in the heart of
the town. One of the worst places visited was in the rear of a busi-
ness block on Main street. The Inspector's report shows that 850
places were visited, 12 written notices to abate served, besides num-
erous verbal ones, and four new cesspools ordered built. The work
as done by Mr. Sanborn was faithfully attended to and the regula-
tions strictly enforced.
THE GAS COMPLAINT.
In October a petition signed by six reputable citizens was presented
to the Board complaining that "the exercise of the trade or employ-
ment of manufacturing and selling gas as carried on by the Citizens'
Gas Light Company of Reading, South Reading and Stoneham is a
nuisance," etc., and that it put in jeopardy the lives of the inhabi-
tants, and praying that it be forbidden within the limits of the town.
This complaint was of such a serious nature that we decided to
inspect the works of the Gas company, and also give a public hear-
ing so that both complainants and representatives of the company
might be heard on the matter. An inspection of the works showed
no nuisance and as far as we were able to judge the manufacture of
gas was properly conducted. At the hearing nothing was brought
out to substantiate the complaint and accordingly it was dismissed.
SEWERAGE.
This Board has no new suggestions to make on the sewerage ques-
/
96
tion as it is practically settled and awaits only a vote of the town to
commence construction. The whole matter has been carefully gone
into on two separate occasions, plans have been drawn after a care-
ful survey of the town, and all the preliminary work done. There
seems to bQ but one plan of disposal suitable to the conditions found
in the town, and that is advised by the best sanitary authority in the
state, the State Board of Health, and by all the engineers who have
considered the matter. There is no question about obtaining the
consent of the Legislature to raise money to put in the plant, and it
now rests with the citizens themselves as to when they will have the
town properly sewered.
COLLECTION OF SWILL.
At the fall town meeting a vote was passed instructing the Board
of Health to let the collection of swill within the limits of the town
to the lowest responsible bidder. Bids were advertised for and we
received six, varying in amount from $495 to $Sco. The bids were
considered and the award made, but no further action was taken as
we found the town had made no appropriation for this purpose, and
there was-no regular appropriation that it could be drawn from. We
decided to let the matter rest until the annual town meeting when we
will ask the town to make an appropriation to cover the amount
named by the successful bidder.
Respectully submitted,
J. C. OXLEY, Chairman,
J. A. O'LEARY, M. D., Secretary,
A. L. VAN N AH, Health Officer.

TREASURER'S REPORT.
To the Citizens of Wakefield :
I herewith present my report of matters connected with the
Treasurer's department for the fiscal year closing Feb. i, 1893.
TRUST FUNDS.
Ezra Eaton Burial Lot Fund, $100.
This fund was a ^ift to the town March 2, 1857, the income of
which is used at the discretion of the Board of Selectmen to keep in
repair the burial lot of the late Ezra Eaton.
The sum of $3 has been expended in the care of the lot during
the past year.
The Flint Memorial Fund, $1,000.
This fund, from Mrs. Harriet N. Flint, is for the benefit of the
Beebe Town Library, the interest thereon to be expended in the
purchase of books.
The sum of $60 as interest one year to Feb. 1, 1893, has been
credited to the Library Account.
Dr. F. P. Hurd Library Fund, $2500.
This fund is for the benefit of the Beebe Town Library, and is
invested in coupon notes of the town of Wakefield, bearing interest
at the rate of four per centum per annum.
C. Wakefield Library Fund, $500.
This fund is also for the benefit of the Library, and is invested in
the same manner as the Dr. Hurd Fund.
Jonathan Nichols Temperance Fund, #1,000.
This fund was a gift to the town on certain conditions as described
in the vote accepting the same. The conditions are such that any
young man of our town, who files his name with the Town Clerk,
before he is sixteen years of age, and declares his intention not to'
drink intoxicating liquors, and not to smoke or chew tobacco, until
he shall become twenty-one years of age, and shall have kept his
100
pledge until that time, shall receive from the income of the fund the
sum of ten dollars, together with a certificate of commendation from
the Selectmen.
The records of the Town Clerk show that 338 young men have
thus pledged themselves and the Treasurer has paid the fee to four
young men the past year who have arrived at the age of twenty-one
years, and certified that they have kept their pledge, making a total
of twenty-five since the fund became operative.

The income from this fund for one year, $400, has been paid to
Thomas J. Skinner, Treasurer of Sweetser Lectures.
This fund is for the purpose of providing such lectures as will tend
to improve the public mind. A reasonable fee for admission is re-
quired, and the net proceeds of the course are to be paid to such
charitable organization in said Wakefield as the municipal officers of
the town may designate, to be distributed among the worthy poor of
the town.
Last year the Treasurer was unable to render a report of the sixth
annual course as the lectures were not completed in season to include
it. Both the sixth and seventh courses are therefore given in this
report.

The Treasurer would recommend that the sum of $4,500 be raised
and appropriated for the payment of interest upon the Town Debt
and for temporary loans.
It will be necessary also to provide for the payment of $2,500 of
the principal of the debt maturing during the coming year. This
amount was left unprovided for by the rescinding of votes (July 22,
1889) relative to the Hamilton School House Loan and the Park
Loan.
I recommend, therefore, the raisiug of $2,500 for the payment of
the town debt.
Other loans maturing during the year are provided for by previous
votes of the town as follows :
$4,000 Funded Loan, as voted April 2, 1888.
$1,000 Renewal of Loan, as voted July 22, 1889.
$5,000 New School House, as voted March 2, 1891.
These will be included in the tax levy of 1893 without further
action by the town.
Of the parties named in my last report as delinquent in the pay-
115
ment of concrete and highway bills for the year 1890, Messrs. Peter
McCulloch and Freeman Emmons have settled with the Treasurer.
To this list is to be added the following names who were reported in
the last Auditor's report as indebted to the town for concrete bills of
1 89 1, and who have not yet made settlement :
William Batchelder, .... $29 43
Edward N. Sweetser, . . . . 58 16
Albert G. Sweetser, . . . . 26 66
Joseph Cartwright, . . . . 26 79
I have caused an article to be placed in the Annual Warrant to see
what action the town will take in relation to these unpaid claims.
Respectfully submitted,
THOMAS J. SKINNER,

OVERSEERS' REPORT.
Again has the year rolled round when it becomes the duty of the
Overseers to make their annual report.
Under the efficient management of the Superintendent and his
wife the farm has maintained the excellent standard which has char-
acterized it for the past ten years.
We have built along Farm street fifty rods of substantial wire fence ;
we have also put upon the house a fire escape, which became neces-
sary as we were ordered to do so by the Inspector of the District
Police.
On account of wet weather no work has been done this year
toward reclaiming the meadow land along the Saugus river and there-
fore no muck has been obtained.
There has been one birth and one death at the house this year
and there has been more sickness this year than usual owing to the
advanced age of many of the inmates.
The crops have been fair and better prices have been obtained.
We have received over one thousand dollars from the sale of milk.
We have changed our policy somewhat on cows from former years
and this year have pastured them at a small expense, rather than sell
them when they dried up and buy new ones, and we are well satisfied
with the result of the experiment.
In the outside department we have had more calls than usual the
past year. The insane account is getting to be a formidable affair,
and we have very recently had several more persons placed on our
hands whose names do not appear in the itemized accounts, as the
bills came to hand after closing our accounts.
The Board have engaged the services of Mr. and Mrs. Donald for
another year, and they again extend to all citizens of Wakefield a
hearty invitation to visit them at any time and inspect the premises.
Respectfully submitted,

TRUSTEES' KEPOfiT.
The Trustees of the Town Library are again called upon by the
compilers of our quasi town history to fill a new page of its contents,
and, as usual, are expected to set forth a new and startling record of
achievements in its line of usefulness.
To those of our readers whose quizzical glance scans our report
only to find out how much more money we would like to squander
than was accorded us last year, we cheerfully say, "pass on, friend
critic ; reserve your thunder for some other board of public robbers ;
turn the page, lest you waste your time."
To the honest critic, however, who looks not with envious eye at
the amount we spend but how we expend it, we extend a friendly
hand. You tell us we have nooo books novvand not more than
half of them go out once a year. That may be very nearly the
truth. What of that? Some of us save our newspapers and file
them away after we have read them. How often do we go back to
them save to ascertain if this thing was so, or that was not? Just so
with the book. It was new and contained news to us once ; it is so
no longer.
An article of food is pleasant to the taste and nourishing to the
body, live on it from day to day and it will soon become worse than
a drug. A new coat is comfortable but time will wear it threadbare
and it outlives its usefulness. Just so with a thousand books on our
shelves, their leaves and covers battered and torn by the hand of
man, like their theories and alleged facts within, buffeted and con-
troverted by the ever-progressing mind of man, have both served
their purpose and are alike discarded.
You tell us, brother critic, we buy too many novels — too much
fiction. Well, we are buying for the town, for the public, for Jack
and for Jill, for the student and for the boy who will not touch a
book that has a yawn in it. You may spend an evening of delightful
profit over Prof. Theo Rist's last essay, but you could not hire your
neighbor on the one side of you nor the daughter of the one on the
other to read the first chapter of it. This is an intensely busy and
122
hard work-a-day life of ours and four-fifths of us, when we get the
time of an evening to read, haven't got the moral courage to set our
minds and brains to work on something solid. We envy the other
fifth but we ourselves want relaxation, and we get it in reading what
other people do and think and say and how they live. Many novels
of today are pictures of actual life, thought, action. We must buy
what people want and call for, and we can't compel you to read what
you don't fancy.
But you say, " You are not buying us books that will last and which
will contain the truth for all time, like the valuable histories, works
of art, books of technics, although we call for them. Why not leave
out the novels and save up some of these before they get out of
print and doubly valuable?" Actual questions. We reply that such
books for obvious reasons cannot go into circulation, and as we have
no fit accommodations for those who would consult such books we
do not believe in locking up the town's money until we can see it
bearing income, i. e. until the books can be conveniently consulted —
when we can have quarters spacious enough to do without ladders
and have consultation tables within the inspection of the librarian,
then we will devote much of our money to filling this long felt and
often acknowledged want. And so it goes ; we admit there is much to
criticise, but come and tell' us what better we can do, and we will try.
For some time past all teachers in our public schools have been
allowed to take such books from the library as may help them in
their work and keep them out so long as they may have need of
them. Books from families in which an infectious disease has been
existing are not allowed to be returned until all danger is past and
they have been thoroughly disinfected. We are having our public
documents, reports and the like bound and unbound, put into such
shape and condition that they can be found when wanted and con-
sulted when called for. The work involves much time and no little
manual as well as mental labor together with some expense, but it is
fairly under way and under the inspection of one of the most inter-
ested and painstaking of our board.
You will note that we have bought fewer books than in previous
years, and that we ask for a smaller appropriation than for some time
past. The reason is that we have hardly room for them on our
shelves and we have no place in which to erect new ones. In the
course of two or three years we shall not need an appropriation for
the purchase of books.
123
What the town ought to have now for its Library is a large, well-
lighted room, sufficiently spacious for its book-shelves, (no ladders)
librarian's desk, tables for the papers, periodicals and magazines now
in the Reading Room, as well as separate tables for the exclusive use
of those wishing to consult our books of reference ; all of which
should be within sight of the librarian, who with an able assistant
could then make our Library and Reading Room what it ought to
be. Give us this and we will wait years for the palatial quarters of
YYoburn and Maiden with only an occasional outburst of longing
instead of an annual wail at being squeezed.
But to our report of the Beebe Town Library. Well, it is full —
full of books, full of people, full of catalogues for sale to those who
want to know what is in it.
The Public Reading Room is fairly well provided with the current
literature of the day, it is well lighted and heated, poorly ventilated,
the patronizers are numerous and the small boy is kept as quiet as the
pay and patience of the janitor and the human nature of the boy
himself can lead us tc expect. Here are a few of the books we call
your attention to among the year's purchases. On

In closing our report we recommend that the town appropriate
the sum of $300 and an amount equal to the proceeds of the dog
tax for the Library and $175 for the Public Reading Room. The
terms of office of Messrs. Waterman, Mitchell and Rogers expire
with the current year and three trustees must be elected by the town
each to serve three years.
For the Trustees,
WILLIAM E. ROGERS, Secretary.

DUTIES OF POLICE OFFICERS.
While the public in general have an understanding of the
duties of police officers, it is very probable that many citizens do
not fully realize the extent of the duties required of them. It
would be a difficult undertaking, however, to explain the duties in
every particular, but I wish to say a few words to the towns-
people on this subject with the hope that citizens may appreciate
more fully the amount of work entrusted to the department.
First of all an officer is expected to be at his post of duty, disre-
132
garding the weather or other circumstances, and there are many
things on his mind of which those whom he serves are not aware.
His duties are not only varied, but they are often complicated,
and frequently necessitate much personal risk, yet no matter how
able or faithful an officer may be, there appears to be many who
fail to recognize or realize this fact. As an instance of the duties
performed by officers, I desire to call attention to the miscella-
neous account in which the statement appears that 116 places of
business were found open and secured. This may seem a small
item, but it is of great significance, as nearly all the places were
stores, and all of the cases occurred in the night, therefore many
larcenies may have been prevented.
•
ILLEGAL LIQUOR TRAFFIC.
There have been the same number of search warrants issued
and served and the same number of seizures as in the previous
year, but I think I can safely say that the amount of traffic in the
kitchen bar rooms (so called) has been less this year than any
time in the past few years. I am willing to allow the respectable
citizens who live in the vicinity of such places to decide. The
fact that three fourths of the persons arrested for drunkenness
during the past year obtained their liquor out of town will bear
me out in this statement. Sixth class licenses for the sale of in-
toxicating liquors have been issued to Wakefield druggists as in
past years. I am aware of the criticism on the part of a few in
regard to alleged illegal liquor selling in drug stores in no-license
towns. I will venture to sav that nine-tenths of those who criticise
are unfamiliar with the law governing sales under sixth class
licenses, or if they did have positive evidence of illegal sales, they
would not go into court and testify. I have done all in my power
to have the requirements of the existing law fulfilled. I have
frequently examined the books kept for the purpose at the various
stores, and in many instances have prohibited the selling of liquor
to certain individuals, and I have reasons for believing that my
requests are being complied with. I agree with law abiding citi-
zens who desire to prohibit the sale of intoxicating liquor in town,
but it should be borne in mind that it is no easy task to secure
positive proof of illegal sales when the purchaser (and neighbors
of the kitchen places) are in sympathy with the offender. Evi-
133
dence which to an ordinary citizen would appear sufficient to con-
vict is often found to be of little importance in court, and for the
above reasons it is hard to obtain the desired effect. As an in-
stance of the above, a seizure was made in Wakefield the past
year when nine quarts of whiskey were seized from one place at
one time, and the case was lost in court, not on account of poor
handling but for want of sufficient evidence that it was kept with
intent to sell.
RECOMMENDATIONS.
The department has been run as economically as possible the
past year. There has been an increase in the demand for police
service within the past few years, which has necessitated a cor-
responding increase in the expenditures of the department. The
appropriations for the department have been small in comparison
with those of other towns of the size of Wakefield, and I would
recommend a larger appropriation for the ensuing year. An
appropriation of $1,500 is needed in order to enable the depart-
ment to give the attention that the public call for and expect.
CONCLUSION.
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen I extend my thanks for
courtesies, and hereby acknowledge the interest which the mem-
bers manifested in the department. To the night officers, each of
whom have sought to promote the success of the department and
have been of valued assistance to me, I extend my acknowledge-
ments. My thanks are also due to the special officers for the
willing and faithful performance of their disagreeble duties.
To his Honor Judge John W. Pettengill I express my indebted-
ness for kindly advice and assistance, and to Clerk William N.
Tyler and his assistant, Wilfred B. Tyler, I am under obligations
for many favors. I have endeavored to fulfill the duties required
of me and trust that I have been impartial in the performance of
the same.
Respectfully submitted,
ALVIN L. VANNAH,
Chief of Police,

Report of Superintendent of Stone Crusher.
To the Honorable Board of Road Commissioners:
Gentlemen, — Having been appointed by the board to take charge
of the stone crusher, ledge, etc., April ist, 1892, and with instructions
to keep a correct account of the cost of crushed stone, I submit the
following report :
My first object after taking charge of the stone crusher was to
obtain a first class engineer and a man to run the steam drill. I had
no trouble in securing the services of an engineer, but was unable to
obtain the services of a competent man to run the steam drill. After
writing several letters and waiting ten days, or more, and not obtain-
ing one, I decided to put the engineer on to the steam drill, and
placed myself in his position (while he was running the drill). Of
course there was a great deal for us to learn, but I was determined to
start the works running, and they ran all right until the foundation
of the crusher began to give away. We at once made an examina-
tion and found as the frost came out of the ground the crusher be-
gan to shake. The examination prov.ed that the foundation had
been placed on top of the soil and very near the surface, and the
crusher had settled four and three-quarters (4 3-4) inches. We
then built a new foundation by digging out about three feet of earth
and made one of good stone.
I am satisfied the crusher is located in the wrong place to crush
stone the most profitable way for the town.
As now located, the crushed stone has to be handled three times
before it reaches the street to be macadamized, which has cost thirty
(30) cents per ton to handle, that should not with the crusher in the
proper place.

$1,795 66
Total cost, $1,795.66, or about one dollar and sixty-eight ($1.68)
cents per ton.
In my opinion there should be deducted from the above cost the
following items :
One-half of the lumber bill (as the lumber is on hand and
ought to be worth one-half it cost), . . $57 87
The cost of new foundation for crusher, . . . . 15 50
The bill for new set of jaws and screen for crusher, . 2 1 00
Cost building bins for crushed stone, . . . . 24 71
$119 08
With this amount deducted the cost of crushed stone would be
reduced to about one dollar and fifty-seven (Si. 57) cents per ton.
And with the saving of handling, (thirty cents per ton) it would
make the cost about one dollar and twenty-seven ($1.27) cents per
ton.
141
RECOMMENDATIONS.
I would recommend that the crusher and all of the machinery
connected with it be removed down on a level with the street, for the
following reasons :
First, (and above all other reasons) — That a thirty (30) feet more
face can be added to the ledge, which means less cost of getting out
and hundreds of tons of stone saved, which is lost by the crusher
being on the hill.
Second — That there be elevators connected with the crusher so as
to take the crushed stone, as fast as crushed, carry and drop it into
bins built so that a cart can be placed under them and loaded with
little or no expense, saving thirty (30) cents per ton, which it now
costs for moving from crusher chutes to storing bins.
Third — If the crusher was down near the street all of the small
boulders from gravel pits and taken from the streets, could be carted
to the crusher and crushed, thereby saving the cost of quarrying,
which is quite an item.

AUDITOKS' FINAL STATEMENT.
From March 17, 1892, to Jan. 26, 1893. the Selectmen have drawn
1,309 orders on the Treasurer, representing $98,963.21. We have
examined the vouchers for these payments, and our report upon them
will be found on pages 142 to 184, arranged in the departments to
which they belong.
Our final balance sheet (page 185), shows a total expenditure of
$107,203.81, which includes $8,164.63 disbursed directly by the
Treasurer for town debt and interest, and Library and Reading Room
payments; and also $75.97 disbursed by the Fish Committee. We
have verified the receipts of such departments as pay money to the
Treasurer ; we have examined the books of the Collector of Taxes
and of T. J. Skinner, Treasurer of the Library and Reading Room,
and find them correct. See pages 112 and 113.
We have also examined the accounts of Mr. Skinner as Town
Treasurer and find them correct, as shown on pages no and in j
with the proper vouchers for all receipts and payments ; and that he
has a cash balance of $757.71 on deposit in the National Bank of
South Reading. We also certify that he has securities and deposits
representing the C. Sweetser Lecture Fund, Burial Lot Funds and
Library Funds. (See pages 99 to 104.)
The Board is called upon to record the death of one of its mem-
bers, Alfred H. Goodwin, which occurred on the 12th day of Janu-
ary, 1893. In his death the town loses an efficient officer; and each
member of the board feels an individual loss. He had proved him-
self earnest and proficient in his work ; and was a young man of
more than ordinary capacity and ability. Our sympathy is extended
to his family.

Report of the School Committee.
The Public Statutes of Massachusetts require the School Com-
mittee annually to "make a report of the conditions of the public
schools, which report shall contain such statements and sugges-
tions in relation to the schools as they (the committee) deem nec-
essary or proper to promote the interests thereof."
Believing that a more general knowledge on the part of parents
regarding: some of the laws of our state relating to matters which
frequently come before the committee for settlement, may be of
interest and result beneficially to all concerned, we herewith give
a few extracts from the last annual report of the State Board of
Education.
"Section i of chapter 44 of the Public Statutes imposes upon
the teachers of the public schools the duty of instructing their
pupils in good behavior. The Constitution of the State makes it
the duty of all institutions of learning to train those committed to
them in the practice of every virtue. To attain these ends it is
necessary that a wise government over the pupils shall be
uniformly and persistently maintained. The teacher istheiLfore
vested with the authority of the parent in the control of the
children in their relations as pupils of his school.
1. In the school room he has exclusive control of his pupils,
subject only to the direction of the school committee.
2. He may rightfully exercise the same full control over his
pupils at any time while they are on any part of the school
premises.
3. \\ nile the pupils are on their way to and from school, the
authority of the teacher may be considered as concurrent with
that of the parent or guardian. If the pupils in coming to school
or in going from it to their homes, commit an offence against the
civil laws, it will be well to leave the offenders in the hands of
judical or parental authority. But if the children quarrel on their
way, or are willfully tardy, or use indecent and profane language,
189
or in any way by their conduct injure the good order and discipline
of the school, the teacher may take notice of such conduct by
subjecting the offender to such wise and judicious treatment as
will have a tendency to prevent a repetition of the offence. In
such cases the teacher should exercise great caution not to use any
doubtful authority, or any questionable modes of correction."
school houses.
Sec. 46 of Chapter 43. Every town not divided into school
districts shall provide and maintain a sufficient number of school
houses, properly furnished and conveniently located for the ac-
commodation of all the children therein entitled to attend the
public schools; and the school committee, unless the town other-
wise directs, shall keep such houses in good order, and shall pro-
cure a suitable place for the schools, where there is no school
house, and provide fuel and all other things necessary for the
comfort of the scholars therein, at the expense of the town. A
town which for one year refuses or neglects to comply with the
requirements of this section shall forfeit not less than five hundred
nor more than five thousand dollars, to be paid, apportioned and
appropriated, as provided in sections nineteen and twenty.
CENSUS OF SCHOOL CHILDREN.
Chap. 46, Sec. 4. Whoever having under his control a child
between the ages of eight and fourteen years, withholds informa-
tion in his possession, sought by a school committee or its agents
for the purposes of the preceding section, or falsifies in regard to
the same, shall be punished by fine not exceeding twenty dollars,
or by imprisonment not exceeding thirty days.
CHILDREN BETWEEN 8 AND 1 4 YEARS OF AGE MUST ATTEND
SCHOOL.
"Every child mustho. in school for at least twenty weeks of the
year, from the time he is eight until he reaches the age of four-
teen years. It is not to be assumed, however, that the legal rights
of children are limited by the Statutes in regard' to the time of
attendance. The school committees have authority vested in
them of admitting pupils to the schools before they are eight and
after they are fourteen years of age. But it is the imperative
190
duty of the truant officers of a town, acting under instructions
from the school committees, to secure the attendance of all chil-
dren between the ages of eight and fourteen years upon some
approved school for at least twenty weeks in every year."
WHEN CHILDREN MAY ATTEND IN ADJOINING TOWN.
Sec. 6. "Children living remote from any public school in the
town in which they reside may be allowed to attend the public
schools in an adjoining town, under such regulations and on such
terms as the school committees of said towns agree upon and
prescribe; and the school committee of the town in which such
children reside shall pay the sum agreed upon out of the appro-
priation of money raised in said town for the support of schools."
CONVEYANCE OF PUPIES.
Chap. 132 of the Acts of 1S69 provides "that any town in the
Commonwealth may raise by taxation or otherwise, and appro-
priate money to be expended by the school committee in their
discretion, in providing for the conveyance of pupils to and from
the public schools."
PUPILS MUST BE VACCINATED.
Sec. 9. "The School Committee shall not allow a child who
has not been vaccinated to be admitted to or connected with the
public schools.
CONTAGIOUS DISEASES.
Chap. 198 of the Acts of 1SS5, provides "that the School
Committees shall not allow any pupil to attend the public schools
while any member of the household to which such pupil belongs
is sick of small pox, diphtheria, or scarlet fever, or during a
period of two weeks after the death, recovery or removal of such
sick person, and any pupil coming from such household shall be
required to present to the teacher of the school the pupil desires
to attend, a certificate from the attending physician or board of
health, of the facts necessary to entitle him to admission in ac-
cordance with the above regulations."
.1
In addition to the above the local Board of Health prescribe
the following regulations :
191
Reg. 26. ''No teacher or scholar who has been sick with
small pox, diphtheria or scarlet fever, shall return to school within
thirty days from the beginning of the disease, and not then till
said teacher or scholar presents a certificate from the physician
in charge that thirty days have passed and the disease is no longer
contagious. This rule will apply to all children living in the
same house and using a common passageway. Children who
have been sick with measles, shall not return to school within
fifteen days from the appearance of the eruption."
Keg. 2 7. "No scholar shall attend school while suffering from
whooping cough."
PENALTY FOR DISTURBING SCHOOLS.
Sec. 23, Chap. 207, Public Statutes. "Whoever willfully inter-
rupts or disturbs a school or other assembly of people, met for a
lawful purpose, shall be punished by imprisonment in the jail not
exceeding' thirty days, or by fine not exceeding fiftv dollars."
MALICIOUS INJURY TO BUILDINGS.
Sec. 7S, Chap. 203. "Whoever willfully and maliciously or
wantonly and without cause destroys, defaces, mars or injures a
school house, church or other building erected or used for pur-
poses of education or religious instruction, or for the general
diffusion of knowledge, or an outbuilding, fence, well or appur-
tenance of such school house, church or other building or fur-
niture, apparatus or other property belonging to or connected
with such school house, church or other building, shall be pun-
ished by fine not exceeding five hundred dollars or by impris-
on ment in the jail not exceeding one year." By the foregoing
we see
1. That teachers do have jurisdiction over pupils to and from
school.
2. Towns must provide and maintain a sufficient number of
school houses for the accommodation of all children therein en-
titled to attend the public schools.
3. A census of school children must be taken yearly, and any
person withholding information, or who falsifies to the committee
or their agent in regard to the same, is punishable by fine or im-
prisonment, or both.
192
4« School committees may permit pupils to attend school before
they are eight and after they are fourteen, but all children from
the time they are eisrht until thev reach the age of fourteen years
must attend school for at least twenty weeks of the year.
5. Children living remote from schools may attend in adjoin-
ing towns under such regulations as may be agreed upon by the
committees of said towns.
6. Towns may raise money by taxation or otherwise to pay
for the conveyance of pupils.
7. Children must be vaccinated before they will be allowed
to attend school.
S. Children living in a house where there is any contagious
disease cannot attend school for a specified time, and then only by
permit from the Board of Health.
9. A penalty cither by fine or imprisonment is imposed for
disturbing schools, or for defacing, maring or injuring a school
house or other public building.
SCHOOLS AND CHANGES.
At the beginning of the school year in September, the Lincoln
school building being ready for occupancy, several changes were
made in the Centre schools. The Centre First Grammar school
was transferred from the third story of the High School building
and the Hamilton First Grammar from the Hamilton building to
the Lincoln school house. The first change was made because
the Committee did not consider the third storv of the High School
building a suitable place for a school, especially of young chil-
dren. The second change was made for the purpose of relieving
the crowded condition of the West Ward. The Centre Second
Primary school being much too large for one room, was divided,
making two schools of this grade. Owing to the crowded condi-
tion of three other rooms it became necessary to fit up the two
recitation rooms for the overflow from these schools and to pro-
vide assistants. These changes filled all the rooms of the Lincoln
building.
A new school was established in the Hamilton building, con-
sisting of the Third Grammar grades of the West Ward and
Franklin street districts, both of these schools being much crowd-
ed and Miss B. I. Cooper was placed in charge of the new school.
i m
Miss Kalaher was transferred from Woodville to the West Ward
and Miss Emma Bateman was appointed to the vacancy at
Woodville. There bein^ a vacancy at the North Ward, Miss C.
II. Monroe of North Reading was appointed to this position.
During the summer Miss C. S. Russell resigned as teacher of the
inklin Street Grammar school and Miss F. C. Burnham of
ston was appointed, but before the opening of school in Sep-
tember she was obliged to resign owing to sickness in her family,
and Miss E. A. Scanlan, another experienced teacher, was
appointed and did very acceptable work until November when
she was practically stolen from us by a neighboring town, and
for the third time within a few weeks, and on very short notice,
it became necessary to procure a teacher for this school. Mrs. I.
T. Cornell, who came well recommended, has since had charge
of the school.
This stealing of teachers by one towrn from another is a most
unjust method of obtaining good teachers. Teachers' agencies
are largely to blame, and school boards and superintendents as
well as teachers themselves are not free from criticism. Teachers
cannot be discharged without just cause, but they can leave when
they please and the Committee must make the best of it. It is
surprising that so many teachers, after having accepted a year's
appointment, have no conscientious scruples, apparently, in
breaking their contract. As we stated in a previous report school
boards are not inclined to stand in the way of a teacher's advance-
ment, and would seldom refuse to release them when so requested
and upon proper notice, but instead of such request to have pre-
sented a peremptory resignation, is anything but agreeable to say
the least.
As we have heard the same complaint from other towns the
trouble must be quite general and we believe a law7 should be
passed to remedy the evil.
We have several other cases in addition to the above, two of
which particularly we wish to mention. Miss Martha Sprague
an efficient teacher in the High School and Miss E. K. Nott, a
•very capable primary teacher were both stolen from us, not,
however, by any School Committee or Superintendent, but in
each case the theft was committed by a young man, each of whom
previously had borne a good reputation for honesty. As in the
194
other cases mentioned we know of no law to prevent such thefts
but while we deplore the loss of two good teachers, we can but
congratulate the young men in their selection of such worthy
companions for their life's journey.
Miss C. E. Emerson was granted a year's leave of absence in
September and Miss C. L. Burrill, assistant in the Advanced Gram-
mar school, was appointed as substitute for the year, and Miss L.
Wilkins of Lynnfield, a graduate of our High School, and later
a graduate of the Boston University, was appointed as assistant
in the Advanced Grammar school.
There have been but few changes in the High School. Miss
Grace Weston was appointed in March as temporary assistant to
fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Miss H. J. Folsom,
an excellent teacher whom we were sorry to lose, but an increased
salary with probable advancement in the Newton High School
was an irresistable inducement. Miss Weston's work proving
acceptable she was later appointed as permanent assistant. In
our report of last year we spoke of the need of another assistant
in this school and during the summer Miss F. M. Locke, an ex-
perienced teacher, was appointed, and we believe the results in
the school work have justified us in making the increase.
It is of great importance and especially in a High School, that
the teachers should be not onlv well fitted for their work, but that
they should be congenial, working well together without friction,
and we are happy to say that such is the present condition in our
High School. The question of omitting the graduation exercises
is still an open one. Teachers are almost unanimous in their
disapproval of these exhibitions, a former principal pronouncing
them a nuisance and wishing thev might be discontinued. We
believe school boards would be glad to omit them but for the fact
that the public practically demand them.
HIGH SCHOOL CADETS.
The Cadets, though not standing quite so high in the School
Regiment as in previous vears, still bold a commendable position,
and we believe would have stood higher except for circumstances
over which thev had no control, a rule being in force allowing
schools to pick the best men from their different companies, which
was manifestlv unjust to the smaller schools. We are glad to
learn that the Principals have rescinded this rule.
195
The study of military tactics in our country schools is of too
recent adoption to expect perfection in all details, but one can
see much improvement since the first field day in our town in
1S90. Gen. Dalton believes that field work would be preferable
to the present annual parade ; that the boys would learn more of
actual military life and tactics which would prove of real value.
High School Principal's Report.
Mr. A. II. Thayer, Chairman of School Committee,
Dear Sir : — At your request I again present a few thoughts in
regard to the condition and needs of the Wakefield High School.
The work of the year has been a busy one, and, in general,
quite satisfactory. In my report a year ago, attention was di-
rected to the fact that more teaching force was urgently needed.
This want was supplied during the spring term by the appoint-
ment of an additional assistant teacher, and the regular work of
the school was put upon its proper basis. Longer recitation
periods were allowed, the work was carefully arranged into de-
partments, useful studies, for which there was no place in the
crowded program of the earlier part of the year, were once more
taken up, and the school was again running along smoothly and
orderly. The new course, which was mentioned in last year's
report, has been in operation for a year and a half, and is surely
proving the wisdom of its adoption. More systematic arrange-
ment of subjects, former courses of study properly lengthened
and new ones added, supplemented by the aid of the newest and
most scholarly text books, have certainly raised the grade of the
school during the past two years. The amount required of a
pupil for graduation today is on an equality with the best High
Schools of the state. The course of study is printed elsewhere
in this report, and it is not my purpose to write further in regard
to it, except to speak of the College Course.
Four years are given for a student to complete his preparation
for college. This requires a great amount of work during the
last two years. If a pupil is in good health and is determined to
196
accomplish the full preparatory work, the school is ready and
willing to render all the aid in its power for that end ; but unless
the conditions are very favorable I strongly urge that pupils spend
five years in regular preparation. That amount of time is re-
quired in the best schools, and without question a better prepa-
ration, together with a strong body and a sound mind, is of more
service to any student than the apparent gain of a year in time.
The higher institutions are crowding the secondary schools
with more and more work. As an illustration, the Institute of
Technology, in its catalogue recently issued, announces that u in
June, 1S94, and thereafter, applicants will be required to pass an
examination in Solid Geometry or in Advanced Algebra. It is
the intention of the Faculty to require both of these subjects at
no distant date." Under such conditions it will be necessarv for
students to do extra work and for the school to find room and
teaching force for two more subjects in its curriculum.
As the higher .institutions necessarilv set the standard for the
High School, so the latter should in a measure receive as much
support as possible in elementary preparation from the lower
schools. A great deal is being said today at educational meetings
and in our great reviews and papers about the possibility of en-
riching the courses of the Grammar grades by adding elementary
science, language, and mathematics, studies which are continued
in the High School, and weeding out much that is unnecessary
for the practical use and actual needs of the pupil. Certain it is
that something must be done to .relieve the pressure on the four
years of High School work.
Pupils who have taken the examinations to enter higher insti-
tutions, have been successful in every instance. Perhaps it is not
generally known how many students from Wakefield attend
higher institutions. At the present time graduates of the school
are to be found in Harvard College, Harvard Medical School,
Lawrence Scientific School, Boston University, Massachusetts
Institute of Technology, Tufts College, Smith College, Massa-
chusetts Agricultural College, and the Salem Normal School.
One of last year's graduates, who had not taken any special work
for such a purpose, and who had not informed his teachers even
that he intended to seek a higher education, not only successfully
entered college last fall, but even passed the first year's examina-
tion in one course of science, the onlv member of the class to do
] 1)7
it. These facts are mentioned in no spirit of self-praise but as a
just statement of the exact work of the school.
The work of a teacher is of so peculiar a nature, that it often
brings discouragements, due to the fact that he can not see any
marked results of his work from day to day. In fact some days
it seems as though pupils had lost what had been gained in pre-
vious lessons. At such times the schoolmaster envies the rattan
worker, who sees an artistic chair before him as the result of a
few hours labor, or the builder, who, as the last sounds of ham-
mer and chisel arc heard, gazes with satisfaction at the day's
advance toward the completion of some beautiful stone edifice.
Therefore, the teachers of the High School were pleased recently,
when Mr. McDonald, an agent of the State Board of Education,
spoke in high terms of the general work in English in the school,
in comparison with what he had noticed in other High Schools.
Words of encouragement aid greatly when results are dimly seen
from day to day.
The whole number of pupils enrolled during the year is one
hundred and twentv-nine, an increa.se of twenty-one during the
past two \ ears. Attention must again be called to the average
daily attendance of scholars. For a school showing progress in
other departments, it seems strange that general attendance does
not improve. Doubtless an unusual amount of sickness has been
the cause of a considerable portion of absence, and yet many
cases occur everv week, where it seems that little or no excuse is
given for failure to attend to duty. The average daily per cent.
of attendance is nearly one per cent, lower than the average a
year ago. I consider that school is the scholar's daily business,
and that there is no more reason for non-attendance upon these
duties than there would be for a young man to be asking for per-
mission to be away from some commercial establishment. Pupils
who after graduation are obliged to work throughout the year
from 7 a. m. to 6 p. m., are frequently tardy and dismissed in a
school session which extends only from 8.30 a. m. to 1.30 p. m.
I respectfully request that the matter be given due attention by the
parents of the pupils. It is not simply an annoyance to the
teacher, but a great injury to the pupils themselves and a positive
detriment to the best interests of the school.
The physical department of the school has been kept up to the
standard of the past. The military company is still a member
19S
of the Second Massachusetts School Regiment, which serves as a
stimulus for the best efforts of the Cadets in healthful competi-
tion with other institutions. The girls in their exercises are
worthy of favorable notice, although they work at a disadvantage.
They are obliged to drill in the school-room, and are greatly
hampered in dumb-bell exercises and in marching by the desks
and other furniture of the room. Some regular system of physi-
cal ediu ation might well be introduced into the schools through-
out the town. It surely should not be confined to this grade, for
in many instances the body has been trained to its permanent form
and condition, while in the elementary schools.
When speaking of a wide-a-wake school in a growing town, whose
citizens expect as good schools as in neighboring cities, at a time,
too, when the science education is making greater strides than ever
before, it is unnecessary of course, to claim that the High School
does not have increasing wants. Reference books are especially
needed, — encyclopedias, dictionaries, and atlases. The latest and
best tools are needed in the workshop in these days. Apparatus for
science work wears out and must be repaired or replaced. Much
has been added during the past year or two, as illustrative helps, and
yet much more is needed. This may seem strange to those who
have not had an opportunity to watch the swift advance of educa-
tional methods, but the keynote of the educational expert today is
object lesson and experiment. Concrete illustration takes the place
of abstract statement, and the school that fails to meet the issue is
living in the past, not in the present.
The large room on the third floor, formerly occupied by the Centre
First Grammar school, should be converted into a large recitation
room or hall for immediate use. A better purpose than that, how-
ever, might be for the introduction of Manual Training. Sooner or
later, Wakefield, well-known for its high class of industries, must see
its way clear to put this important branch of study into its school
curriculum. A splendid opportunity for a beginning is presented in
the vacant room on the third floor in the High School building.
The school continues to receive presents for its walls. A fine
portrait of the late Cyrus Wakefield, Esq., an appropriate gift, was
presented to the school by Mrs. Harriet N. Flint; and on Columbus
Day a bust of the great discoverer was donated by the entering class.
The school itself has recently purchased a Miller Parlor Grand Piano
to take the place of the old instrument, which had become worn-out
199
from service. This will be paid for from the receipts of exhibitions
given by the school.
The discipline of the school was never better. The system of
moral obligation and of just treatment of others has certainly gained
a signal victory. The best of feeling seems to exist between pupil
and instructor, and it is the endeavor of the Principal to foster this
spirit.
History, science, language and mathematics are taught faithfully,
it is believed, and with some success in the Wakefield High School,
but grander and nobler thoughts cluster around much of each day's
teaching. The nobility of high character must be emphasized, the
love of justice and truth honored, and the grandeur of patriotism
ingrafted into the minds of the pupils. Surely, the proper education
today of the boy and girl in the Wakefield public school is a "prepa-
ration for the duties and responsibilities of life."
Respectfully yours,
C. T. C. WHITCOMB, Principal.

Now midst fragrant breath of roses.
Comes the time to say adieu.
At the entrance of life's journey,
Stands the class of Ninety-two.
We have left those years of labor
Interspersed with pleasures rare,
Broader fields extend before us,
Each shall find his life-work there.
Chorus, — Though our High School life is ended,
And while years may intervene,
Let us not forget each other,
Keep- the memories ever green.
In the days now gone forever, .
Patient teachers we have known,
In the dear old Wakefield High School,
Seeds of knowledge they have sown.
Let us hope that in the future,
Useful lives we all may lead,
Lives that shall disclose rich harvests

TRUANCY.
Almost every year the committee are obliged to perform a disagree-
able duty, that of committing some child to the (so called) truant
school at Lowell, of which State Agent Walton, in the last annual
report of the Board of Education, says, "I have some personal
knowledge of the Lowell truant school, the 'House of Employment
and Reformation of Juvenile Offenders,' as it is called. This school
is grouped with three other city institutions — the almshouse, the
workhouse or jail, and the insane asylum or asylums, one for men and
the other for women, overlooked by the school. At the time of my
last visit there were about 450 inmates in these various institutions,
90 of them insane. The school had 60 members; 11 of these were
committed for larceny and vagrancy, 1 for drunkenness, and about
30 for truancy, though the superintendent said a third of that num-
ber probably were also charged with crime, the remaining members
of the school were resident pupils, 'pauper children,' as the principal
called them, 10 males and 8 females." Continuing, the principal
says, "the membership of this school in all the years I have been
identified with it has been composed of truants, vagrants, thieves and
paupers and yet," says Mr. Walton, "this is the place assigned by
Lowell and thirteen other Middlesex towns as the place for their
children who run away from school." He recommends that the
County Commissioners exercise the authority vested in them by law
and provide a county truant school. One town "after twelve years'
experience, concluded to trust her truants to the street and to the
home, poor though it be, rather than send them here." Of the two
plans, of sending them to this "House of Employment and Reforma-
tion of Juvenile Offenders" or of trusting them to our own streets, it
is a question if the latter course would not produce better men.
It is only as a last resort that this extreme and disagreeable duty is
resorted to, but if there were some good institution, a reformatory in
every sense, there are children who would, undoubtedly, be much
benefited by a few months' or a year's stay at such place, and many
others who would be indirectly benefited by the possibility of being
sent there on less provocation than at present.
PRUDENTIAL.
With ten school buildings containing twenty-six schools and
attended by over twelve hundred pupils, it can readily be seen that
20:*
there must of necessity be considerable wear and tear of buildings,
and in addition to the legitimate depreciation of the buildings is the
injury and breakage caused by mischievous and malicious persons.
The Committee intend, as far as possible, to attend to all necessary
repairs, during the summer vacation, but notwithstanding all that is
done at that time, repairs are almost constantly required.
During the past summer two more buildings have been painted and
repaired outside, the North and East Ward buildings. This leaves
only two, the Woodville and Franklin street school houses, which
have not been painted within the past three years. The walls and
ceilings have been tinted in the High School building, including the
the halls, recitation rooms and the Advanced Grammar school room.
Now from basement to attic, this building is in good order, but this
cannot be said of the roof, which is in almost constant need of
repair. We learn from a reliable source that the slates are poor and
that the roof needs reslating. In addition to this, the balustrades
around the roof should be removed. They are not only useless and
unsightly but are also a source of expense. ■
The appropriation for contingent expenses would not have been
over run but for the fact that many more old desks and chairs were
repaired for the Lincoln Building than the Committee had estimated
upon. While this made the expense less for new furniture which
was paid out of the appropriation for that building, it was quite an
increase in our account for contingencies.
The Committee are seriously considering the purchasing of coal for
school buildings by the cargo. The school department requires
about 340 tons. Other town departments use about 100 more tons.
Local dealers claim that they but little more than clear expenses. If
this is the case it would prove a double benefit for the town to pur-
chase its coal by the cargo. We believe it could be done at quite a
saving.
R ECOMMENDATIONS.
Another year comes around and with it our annual recommenda-
tion, "that the town employ a Superintendent of Schools." We
earnestly hope that this year the town may grant our request. Mr.
A. W. Edson, agent of the State Board of Education, says of the
towns in Worcester County, "To show the change of public senti-
ment in favor of competent supervision, I note the fact that, of the
fifty-nine towns and cities in Worcester County three years ago but
204
eight of them employed superintendents of schools, while up to the
present time the number has been increased to forty-four." Mr.
Edson says further "The value of skilled supervision rests almost
entirely in the training of teachers to do better work. The idea,
occasionally advanced, that good teachers do not need this training,
is mere nonsense. * * This work, the School Committee,
with other interests on their minds, having neither the time nor train-
ing necessary, even if they have the ability, cannot do."
We might fill pages in support of the desirability and necessity
for the employment of a Superintendent of Schools. No firm of
business men would think of conducting a business without a mana-
ger, but in the case of our town six men are expected in addition
to their own individual business, to conduct successfully that most
important business of superintending the public schools. Again we
respectfully and earnestly ask of the town the authority to appoint a
School Superintendent. By doing this in conjunction with some
neighboring town, the additional expense would be nominal, in fact,
but little more than the price of one good teacher, while the benefit
to the schools, compared with the present system of supervision,
would be almost incalculable.
For the past two years we have recommended that some action be
taken by the town relative to the introduction of some simple forms
of industrial training. We believe that an industrial school for such
graduates of the grammar grades, who do not wish to take the High
School Course, would go far toward solving the problem of how to
make our schools more practical, and we respectfully recon.n. end
consideration by the town of this important branch of education.
Last year we recommended the enlargement of the Franklin Street
school building and a committee was appointed by the town to inves-
tigate as to the practicability of so doing. This committee reported
against the advisability of enlarging the present building owing to the
expense and they believed it would be only a few years before even a
larger building would be required than it was contemplated making
of this, and that when a new building was erected it should be upon
some other lot. Though one grade has been removed the necessity
still exists for the better accommodation of this district.
This is also true of the Hamilton and West districts, and the
present lot in Greenwood is unsuitable, both in size and location, for
a new building. Available lots are yearly growing less and are in-
creasing proportionately in expense, and we believe it would be wise
205
on the part of the town to purchase lots in each of these districts, as
school buildings will be needed in the near future.
We do not think it right to oblige children, and especially primary
children, to travel a long distance to school, even though our fore-
fathers when young did enjoy this privilege. It should not be a
question of whether it is good for children, or whether or not parents
are willing to send their children long distances to school. The law
requires that "every town shall provide school houses conveniently
located for the accommodation of all children therein entitled to
attend the public schools," and schools from one to two miles distant
can hardly be construed into "conveniently located" school houses.
We wish, in behalf of the town, to extend our hearty thanks to
Mrs. H. N. Flint for the fine portrait of Mr. Cyrus Wakefield, which
she generously presented to the High School.
The term of office of Messrs. Hill and White expire this year,
making two vacancies to be filled at the annual meeting in March,
for a term of three years each.
The committee would respectfully recommend for the support of
schools for the ensuing year the following appropriations :

IN MEMORIAM.
"In Riverside, Cal. Jan. 13th, Miss Clara P. Riggs, formerly of
Wakefield."
In September, 1889, Miss Riggs was appointed assistant in the
Advanced Grammar school, and later was transferred to the Centre
First Primary school where she taught till the close of schools last
June.
At the beginning of the fall term being unable to resume her
duties she requested a year's leave of absence which the committee
willingly granted. In October she started for Riverside, Cal., in
hopes of regaining her rapidly failing strength, but in January, hardly
three months after her departure, came the sad news of her death.
She was of a bright, cheerful disposition, and by her death the
town loses a capable instructor and her pupils a loving Christian
friend and teacher.

Wakefield Water Committee,
REPORT
IN REGARD TO PURCHASE OF
WAKEFIELD WATER WORKS,
Made to the Town Nov. 13, 1893.
WATER COMMITTEE'S REPORT.
The committee chosen March 20, 1893, to investigate in respect
to the purchase of the water works of the Wakefield Water Com-
pj ii v. by the towns of Wakefield and Stoneham, herewith submit
their report as follows: —
Your committee find that the contract of the Water Company
with the town of Stoneham provides for the right of the towns of
Wakefield and Stoneham to purchase the water works by the
following clause in it : —
" This Company farther agrees that the town of Stoneham may, at any
time after ten years, and not later than fifteen years from the completion
of the works !iere;n agreed to be performed, purchase those portions of
said company's works constructed for the purpose of supplying the town
of Stoneham with water, together with the franchise of said company,
covering such proportional parts of said company to the waters of Crystal
and Quannapowitt Lakes and their sources of supply, at such price as may
be agreed on ; and, if no agreement can be reached, at such valuation as may
be lixed by a commission to be appointed by any person who shall at the
time be a judge of probate for the county of Middlesex or of Suffolk, pro-
vided that the town of Wakefield shall agree and vote to do the same in
regard to the portions of the franchise and works constructed to supply
water for that town; and the company hereby agrees, if both towns of
Wakefield and Stoneham shall so vote, then the town of Wakefield shall
have the same right to purchase the portion of the works constructed to
supply water for that town, together with the franchise of said company
covering such proportional parts of the right of said company to the
waters of Crystal and Quauuapowitt Lakes and their sources of supply."
This contract was confirmed by legislative act, and published
in Stoneham town report of February 28, 1883.
A number of conference meetings of the Wakefield and Stone-
ham committees have been held, at one of which a sub-committee
of three from each town was chosen to confer with the Wakefield
Water Company, to see if they would name a price for the plant
and franchise for a sale of the same to the two towns.
Mr. E. C. Miller, as chairman of that committee, wrote a letter
to the company as follows : —
Boston. Mash., July 21, 1893.
S. K. Hamilton, Esq., President Wakefield Water Company :
Dear Sik. — At a joint meeting of the committees appointed by the
town of Wakefield and the town of Stoneham, to examine into the question
of the future supply of these towns, and the advisability of purchasing
the plant of the Wakefield Water Company, a special committee was
appointed, consisting of three members from each town committee, to
confer with the Wakefield Water Company in regard to purchase by the
two towns. The committee understand that the company has been
authorized by the legislature to issue $300,000 worth of bonds at live per
cent, and have also issued $125,000 worth of stock. They would like to
know if the company is ready to name a price at which they will sell the
property to the towns any time before December 1st, next, the towns to
assume the debts of the company. In this case the committee would like
to know how many of the bonds have been issued, when payable and at
what rate of interest, and also the nature of any other debt thev would be
called upon to assume. In order to arrive at a conclusion of the reason-
ableness of the company's offer, the committee would like to know of
what the property consists, the number of miles of pipe laid, the different
sizes, etc. Also, in order to be able to properly advise the two com-
mittees, they would like to know the ordinary annual running expenses and
expenses of repairs, and the gross income the company is earning at the
present time.
As the contract between the two towns and the Water Company expires
next winter, and the committee wishes to present the matter fully to the
two towns in season for a proper consideration of what is best to do, an
early reply will oblige.

In answer to the letter of inquiry the following letter was re-
ceived from the Water Company : —
Boston, Mass., July 27, 1893.
K. C. Miller, IN i.. Chairman of sub- Committee, Wakefield, Mass.:
Dear Sir,— Yours of the 21st inst., in behalf of the sub-committees
of the committees appointed by the towns of Wakefield and Stoneham to
examine into the question of the future water supply of these towns, and
the advisability of purchasing the plant of the Wakefield Water Company,
was duly received, and I should have replied earlier, but from the fact
thai it was impossible for me to confer with any of the stockholders of
the company. As it is. 1 have a1 this time been able to reach only one.
\^ 1 understand the scope of your inquiry it is, if the company is ready
to name a price at which they will sell the property to the towns any time
before December ! st, next, I he towns to assume the debts of the company.
To that inquiry I think I am authorized to say that the company are not
ready to name such price.
1 am very respectfully yours.
S. K. BAMILTON, Pres. of Wakefield Water Company.
As the reply of the water company stated that the company was
not ready to name a price for its property and franchise, your
committee infer that no agreement can be reached by the com-
mittee of the towns and the Water Company, in regard to it, and
it is probable that a commission of three disinterested men ap-
pointed by the judge of probate to appraise the value and fix the
price would be able to do it more satisfactorily and with less
criticism than would a committee of the towns and the Water
Company. In view of the fact that with the continuation of the
water works in the hands of a private company for the next thirty
years, the inhabitants of the towns of Wakefield and Stoneham
probably paying to it an annual sum of an average of forty thousand
dollars per year (and increasing each year) amounting in the
thirty years to twelve hundred thousand dollars, and then having
no ownership by the towns in the property or franchise, as
also the importance of the towns holding a position to have the
most influence in the regulations as to the sales of the so-called
surplus water to other towns, the committees of both towns,
Wakefield and Stoneham, are unanimous in the opinion that the
water works that are supplying the towns of Wakefield and Stone-
ham with water should be owned by these towns at as early a date
as can be arranged for their purchase.
As the subject is one of such importance to the town, and the
contract of the town with the Water Company for the use of
hydrants expires December 1st, next, your committee would recom-
mend that the Selectmen be instructed to call a special town
meeting with proper articles in the warrant under which the town
can provide for the purchase of the water works with Stoneham,
and the subject be noted upon with due consideration ; also that
the town make no contract with the company of any nature until
after such special meeting shall be held, and thai this report be
published in the town newspapers and in circulars to be sent to
the voters of Wake ii eld.
